Milk is not made "by the hands of mankind" unless you count farmers groping domesticated cattle to spit out some of their milk as being "man made."
Suds was once a widely-used substitute for "beer," relating to the same sudsy bubble-foam that comes from using dish soap. You will not ruin this for me, you beer guzzling heathen.
Good stuff however you say it Whisky lol let us all get drunk and feast on the water of life. So many nuances to it.
It actually depends where the whiskey originated. Quickest way is whether or not the country of origin has an "e" in it. AmErica and IrEland spell it "whiskey." Countries like Canada, Scotland and Japan spell it "whisky."
That's why Jameson's, Jack Daniels and Bushmills (among many others) are called "whiskey," while Johnnie Walker, Crown Royal and Yamazaki are called "whisky."

There are cows that spit out chocolate milk? I always thought man added the chocolate and sugar.

"once" being the operative term there. I know all sorts of phrases that were popular from around 1940 to 1960, but I don't use them because I usually try to effectively communicate my ideas.

The Bourbon thing is a little odd but almost all of it is made in Kentucky, Tennessee Whiskey is a different beast altogether and it must be produced in TN, filtered through white oak charcoal, it technically is a Bourbon but no one calls it that. It has been great that over the past few years we now have a lot of tiny micro distilleries popping up and making some great product. My favorite is Corsair Artisan, the triple smoke whiskey these guys turn out is nothing short of amazing. Also Popcorn Sutton's company is making a great product right now though it is technically just Tennessee White Whiskey at this point.
Since most of these new places are employing brewers I already knew, feel free to hit me up if you are in town anyone and we will go on some tours.

I happen to enjoy the way people spoke during previous eras. I think I might start calling you "old sport" to drive this point home, old sport.

Pro-tip: If during one of these tours Jess offers you a sample of unproofed Quinoa whiskey, do NOT do it. So much burn.
Bourbon is a type of whiskey, whiskey is not a type of bourbon. This is a very simple concept.
No it's not, but saying that Whiskey is better than Bourbon when Bourbon is Whiskey doesn't make sense. If you had defined what kind of Whiskey you prefer, Rye, Malt, Wheat... then fine.
This is like saying if you put chocolate and sugar on a piece of cow sh*t, it makes the cow sh*t "man-made."
It doesn't make the ingredient "man-made", but it would make whatever you would call that abomination "man-made". I think Flanzpie has a nice ring to it.

You enjoying it has nothing to do with anybody coming with you on it.

You should have seen ITM and the unproofed rum.... This is my favorite TN Whiskey product right now, the Whiskey base is made by Popcorn Sutton, and the rest tastes like the most amazing Baileys you will ever have in your life.

I called bourbon whiskey's "step-brother," clearly implying there is a connection between the two.
I don't know what point you're trying to prove, give it a rest.

Does it hurt your brain to deliberately ignore logic to argue with me?

He is trying to say that you are saying Whiskey is better than specific whiskeys. I am thinking he would be alright with you saying "Rye Whiskey is better than Bourbon." or something similar. Right now, he is saying you are coming off as saying something to the effect of "NFL teams are better than the Jets."

My point is that's like saying Coke is the step brother of Cola. You insinuated a difference between Bourbon and Whiskey, when Bourbon is Whiskey. When you just simply use the term Whiskey, you are including Bourbon. That's why I am asking, what type of Whiskey are you referring to?

So I have to say "Irish, American, Rye, etc., etc. whiskey club?"
"Whiskey" is its own entity, the same way "bourbon" is.
This isn't a situation where whiskey is the Coca-Cola while Bourbon is the Diet Coke and Scotch is the Coke Zero. These drinks use different processes and are quite different from one another.
has anyone ever heard of the bourbon trail/festival they have it every year in bardstown kentucky black tie tuxedo event all of the bourbons in the state are available to taste in one place it is usually around my bday and have kinda had plans to go for awhile and check it out www.kybourbonfestival.com/

Don't start that sh*t with me. You're Irish/Italian. You're like a super Catholic.
God dammit this is so true. My dad was legitimately sad when I wouldn't be an altar server and my Nonna was one of those "if you sin, God will send you straight to hell!" old-school Italian women. My Irish and Italian families fought over my confirmation name, and I wanted to make it LeRoy (it's Thomas). Perhaps this is why I sprint away from organized religion now.
Still Bourbon, Rye, Scotch, etc... all have a lot more in common with each other than they do with say gin. To me the big difference is what is in the brew/mash. Bourbon and most TN/KY liquors is made from corn, almost all other Whiskeys are made from grain in fact the only difference between beer and whiskey mash is typically there are no hops in the whiskey product. Then you get into whether or not a single or blended malt was used, and how much if any smoke was applied to the grain beforehand.
Corsair for instance makes an "American Whiskey" from three different malt batches each which is smoked with a different flavor. For all intents and purposes it is "Scotch", but where it is produced has a lot to do with the name as well.
