Welcome to Old World Whisk[e]y! Scotch, Irish & Japanese whisky! What's Old World Whisk[e]y...? Originally whisky was first distilled in Ireland and Scotland. Whiskies from those areas are considered "Old World". The Japanese make their whisky like the Scottish, so it's included in this course. We cover all these wonderful whiskies and so much more.
Why do some people spell it "Whiskey" and others spell it "Whisky"? Now you'll know!
This course will bring any novice to an expert, in an amazingly short amount of time.
WARNING: THIS COURSE GETS TECHNICAL AT TIMES! I have tried to be as detailed as possible. Some reviews have stated the course is too technical at times, but I think better to give too much info than not enough.
