Whiskey Master Class: The Ultimate Guide to Understanding Scotch, Bourbon, Rye, and More

What do you taste… what do you smell when you take a sip of whiskey?

If it’s Scotch, you may taste tar or dried fruit or marmalade. Trying a bourbon? Scents of maple or blackberry or coconut come from the glass. Irish? A lush selection of fruit, maybe a grassy freshness. Sipping a Canadian might yield caramel, roasted nuts, and a zippy note of spice. Japanese can offer a bosky note of greenery, perhaps smoky plum notes. Grab a small distillery whiskey and anything’s on the table: barbecue, hot tires, strawberries, peanuts, or peppermint.

All of these flavors are different, and these whiskey traditions are singular enough that you can often tell what you’re drinking just by the flavors and aromas. But all these flavors and aromas also have something in common: Not one of them is an ingredient in the whiskey. No blackberries, no peanuts, no marmalade, and certainly no tires have been added!

Whiskey or Whisky?

One of the biggest arguments about whiskey is how to spell it. It’s generally “whiskey” in America (though Maker’s Mark, Old Forester, and George Dickel drop the “e”) and Ireland, while it’s “whisky” in Scotland, Canada, and Japan. (You can remember it easily: Ireland and America both have an “e” in them; the other countries don’t.) The other small producers in various countries do as they see fit, though it’s most often “whisky.”

There is no argument. “Whisky” and “whiskey” are pronounced the same, and they mean the same thing. It’s like the difference between “aluminum” in America and “aluminium” in Canada: a letter, nothing else. The differences are all in how the spirit in question is made, which we’ll examine in chapter 2. I’ll be using “whiskey” unless I’m talking specifically about Scotch, Canadian, or Japanese whiskies. The only reason why is because I’m writing this in America. Really, it’s just spelling.

Copper Chemistry

But they’re prone to dents, they wear out quickly and have to be repaired, and even when they’re working, they get tarnished. And you know some low-tenure stillman is going to wind up polishing them, by hand. Yet distillers are in love with copper.

What’s the story?

“Originally copper was used because it was available,” Dr. Bill Lumsden told me. “It was malleable, you could shape it fairly easily into the shape of a still, and it had good heat transfer capability. It was by chance that it was discovered that the copper chemically reacts with the condensing vapors.” It happened after fabricators learned how to make affordable stainless-steel stills—and learned a few years later that they made awful whiskey.

It comes down to chemistry. Freshly cleaned copper reacts with sulfur compounds in the vapor—the sulfur comes from the grains—to create copper sulfate. The black, noxious-smelling compound stays behind and the spirit flows clean.

Without copper? “[The whiskey] would be very pungently sulfury, meaty, almost a cabbagey smell,” said Lumsden. “Not really what you would want. Not only would there be too much of the sulfur itself; it would mask a lot of the fruitiness and subtlety of the whiskey.”

Chemistry is wonderfully serendipitous like that sometimes.

It’s also somewhat romantic in this case. When copper binds to the sulfur, it uses up the metal, thinning the stills, the condensers, the lyne arm; everything copper eventually has to be replaced, all because it literally gives itself away to make our whiskey taste better. We say the best people have hearts of gold; the best whiskeys have shiny souls of copper.

User questions & answers

Question: Are replacement filters available
Answer: Yes. Amazon also carries the replacement filters for these pet fountains. In the amazon search bar, type Veken Pet Fountain replacement filters. Amazon carries exact fit filters.
Question: Is this good for a Savannah cat
Answer: It's also heavy enough full of water that a cat such as that one won't be able to move it. It also comes with a small pad as pictured that has very good friction. I have a cat that's either a Savannah or from a Lynx line. I think I've seen it called a Desert Lynx. Either way, he's large, strong, very curious, and obsessed at time with moving the water fountain whether playing or ticked he isn't getting more food. I've had not problems with this fountain and doing that. Also, it's tall enough that he drinks from it comfortably. He's a tall cat and like the even tall fountain on my other one so I'm glad this worked out.
Question: Where do I buy replacement filters
Answer: You can purchase the replacement filters via this link: https://www.amazon.com/Veken-Replacement-Automatic-Fountain-Dispenser/dp/B07GND1XPG. In addition, if you need a spare pump, you can purchase it via this link: https://www.amazon.com/Veken-Replacement-Fountain-Ultra-Quiet/dp/B07JFJZ3CP. We provide you with 100% satisfactory service, please feel free to contact us if you have any questions.
Question: Do you have to disassemble this to refill it or do you pour water into the top and it drains into the reservoir
Answer: I tend to add water at the top as my dog drinks out of it also and depletes the water supply. However I do take it apart and clean it every week which is very easy and then I fill it up at that time. It only takes a few minutes to take it apart , clean it, fill it and put it back together. Really easy. I'm 77 so if this old lady can do it, you can too.

User questions & answers

Question: How often do you change the filter
Answer: I change it every 3weeks
Question: Will this model automatically turn off when it runs out of water? I'm leaving town for 3 days

Answer: The cat water fountain has to be plugged in.

User questions & answers

Question: Can I buy replacement clips
Answer: This is a great question! You may find it helpful to know the model number for the replacement cone locks is PAC00-13116.
Question: I need a replacement pump. How can I get one? Thanks
Answer: I just googled it when looking for parts. Here is the link where I purchased mine from.http://store.petsafe.net/drinkwell-360-replacement-pump?utm_source=google&utm_medium=cse&utm_content=PAC00-13206&gclid=CIrou4-2pr4CFaZlOgod1yUA9g
Question: How loud is the fountain? I ask because the fountain woud be in the room next to my bedroom. Do you keep your fountain on all day and night
Answer: I keep my fountain running 24/7 and it's right outside my bedroom as well. I keep my bedroom door partially closed bit the fountain does not bother me. Although I can hear it during the day when all is quiet. It is more of a soothing sound to me. I would say if the sound is going to bother you get a flowing type fountain not one that drips. Aside from that I really recommend this fountain it is my favorite one and is easiest to clean.
Question: Do you have to have the filter or can it be run without it
Answer: I have this fountain for my cats and love it . I have two cats and I found that when I would change the filter every month the filter would be DISGUSTING. It was slimy and almost like it had a slimy mold/moss growing on the filter (the debris it collected even seemed slightly green-tinted). I've always used my Britta filtered water in this so I decided to give it a try without the filter and it works perfectly fine. I change the water weekly and there are no issues. I feel like because this design is so low to the grown and large a lot of dust/dirt/debris from the floor plus cat fur and cat spit ends up in it so I'm happy replacing their water every week. Also, I'd never want to drink water that old.

User questions & answers

Question: I love this fountain and so do my cats! To refill, when the water gets low, do I just pour it in or do I have to take apart to refill
Answer: I just pour in to refill until it is time to clean it again. I try to do that weekly or every other week depending on how on top of things I am. Just don't pour too fast or it will overflow and spill.
Question: Is the fountain quiet
Answer: For the most part, yes. It makes the same amount of noise that a serenity water fountain makes. You hear the water falling off of the flower but far as the motor goes, it’s very quiet. You don’t hear the machine itself at all.
Question: Does it fit the round catit filter
Answer: NO! I ordered the Catit filters and they did not fit and returned them. I then ordered: MEWTOGO 10 Pack Cat Fountain Filters- Pet Water Fountain Replacement Filters Filled with Activated Carbon for 1.6L Cat Automatic Water Dispenser . These are the same as what came with the fountain. Purrfit !!!
Question: My cat knocks the lid off and spills water all over the place. Is there anything i can do to temporarily seal the lid down
Answer: Your cat may be what's referred to in industry as a butthead. Look for drinking glasses on the ground, and lamps on their side when they should be upright. Unfortunately this condition is chronic and will stay with your cat his or her entire lives. Good luck!
