Have you ever had Scotch whisky? It's my favorite to drink after a rough day!
Yes, Ive had Scott whiskey but it had been years. 
You should try it mixed with a bit of tea. It really helps take the edge off.
Irish Whiskey also has a mellow flavor perhaps due to the peat used in the malting process.
That might be better. Scottish people tend to like things super strong, so perhaps that's why their whiskey is so intense.
Malting is pretty interesting to think about how enzymes, yeast breakdown into such a drink.
I would love to hear more about that. I don't do much but drink the stuff!
Yeah you can use different cereal grains to make different spirits. Like barley to make whiskey
