Are old George Dickel whiskey bottles worth anything?
The dark brown bottle with a curved neck and leather holster was used in a Star Trek episode or two, and one of them is in the Science Fiction Museum in Seattle. Thus, it has a degree of collectible pedigree. $20- $35, perhaps. The bottle was made by Sloan Glass in W.Va. -- a successor company to Bischoff Glass, which has some aficionados. Dickel also had Sloan manufacture a huge golf club head and shaft, which it used as a bottle as well. It falls in the same price range, if it has the golf ball as a stopper.
Whisky (Scottish English) or whiskey(Hibnero-English) is a type of distilled alcoholic beverage made from fermented grain mash. Different grains are used for different varieties, including barley, malted barley, rye, malted rye, wheat, and maize (corn). Whiskey is aged in wooden casks, made generally of white oak, except that in the United States corn whiskey direct form the stil is sometimes surreptitiously sold as "White Lightning" and is not aged. But well-aged-in-oak corn whiskey is the American "bourbon", or (depending on still process) "Sour Mash", and is well aged in wood. Whisky is a strictly regulated spirit worldwide with many competing denominations of origin and many classes and types. The typical unifying characteristics of the different classes and types are the fermentation of grains, distillation, and aging in wood. Indian whiskey is an exception, where grain fermentation is not a requirement and the most common basis is fermented molasses. The requirement for aging in wood is also not entirely universal.

How was the corruption related to Crédit Mobilier different from that of the Whiskey Ring?
Both occurred during the administration of Ulysses S. Grant, from 1869 to 1877.
The Whiskey Ring directly involved tax revenue (notably whiskey taxes) being distributed among elected officials.
The Credit Mobilier scheme involved the top managers of the Union Pacific Railroad, although politicians were bribed with shares of the company under the preceding administration of Andrew Johnson.

Under President Ulysses S. Grant, the government gave land and subsidies to help railroad companies build the transcontinental railroad to connect the Atlantic and the Pacific oceans.

The executives then hid excessive fees and cost overruns by using the dummy company.

What is the difference between how single malt and blended whiskeys are made?
I believe the "pure malt" referred to is actually a "single single" malt.
Single malt is when whiskey comes from a single malting, or batch of malted barley. This just means that the same batch of malted barley was used to make all the whiskey in that particular bottle you are drinking. It can come from many different actual batches/vats of whiskey as long as the same malt is used.
Single single is when all the whiskey came from the same batch of whiskey, not just the same batch of malted grain. However, sometimes even single single malt whiskey is not pure. It is sometimes watered down to obtain the desired proof, or alcoholic content.
The purest form of whiskey is barrel strength single single malt. This means it is a single single malt that has not been watered down. This may actually be the "pure malt" that you heard about.
For anybody wondering about double malt, it is simply whiskey made using whiskey made from two separate malts. When any more than two malts are used, it is generally referred to simply as "malt whiskey" or "blended malt" whiskey.
The reason superb single malts are so expensive is the fact that if the malt is sub-par, then it cannot be used and a new malt must be done. On the opposite end of the spectrum, this is also why some single malts are so cheap. They aren't after that 'perfect' whiskey. They're just making whiskey as cheap as possible... kinda like the McDonald's of whiskey. This also applies to blended malt whiskeys. Some are truly superb because of the extensive blending that goes into making them exactly how the blendmaster wants them.
Double or blended malts make up most of your mid-price whiskey due to the ease of mixing multiple malts to come up with a mediocre product... not the smoothest on the market, but far from the bottom of the barrel, so to speak.
