      ... and what they say is: "If you’re talking about a dram that’s been made in Scotland... use the spelling without the e—whisky."

          The spelling of Scotch whisky (no ‘e’) is enshrined in law. It's legally whisky and not whiskey. Why are you doubling down on being wrong? Do you just like arguing on the internet?

            And it's the difference of grey and gray.

            You're literally doing the same thing except you can't understand that it's a different spelling of the same fucking word.

            You're not a good pedant.

              And yet whiskey is still the wrong spelling of the word for scotch. This isn’t a point of view or an opinion. It’s literally a legal mandate.

              So brave of you to keep being demonstrably wrong.
