Special Edition ... Errata!

Well, the feeder's face is redder than normal this morning.  An avid and alert reader pointed out a case of literary dyslexia contained in my last posting "Almost There".

In trying to make the "cocktail hour" deadline I inadvertently got the Whisk(e)y/Whisky thing backwards.  

In the USA and Ireland, it is Whiskey
In the rest of the world it is Whisky. 

Some think that the "e" was used in the USA to indicate that rye was used as part of the mash bill...

Some american distillers do use the other spelling, like Maker's Mark, Early Times, and Old Forester...

slainte!
 and NOT in a Mason Jar!

sorry for the mistake... i know better!
