There are several distilleries that claim to be distilling scotch whiskey outside of Scotland, such as the Glen Breton whiskey distilled by Glenora Distilleries in Cape Breton, NS, Canada. These claims are based on the Scottish Heritage of the region from which it is made and the efforts to fashion it according to traditional recipes and practices from Scotland. Realistically though, no whiskey made out of Scotland can properly be called Scotch any more than a whiskey made in Japan can be called Irish Whiskey as it is simply a title for the country of origin. A better term for such claimants would be "scotch-style" whiskey.

The ironic thing is that, while Scotch tends to have a distinctive taste, which is derived largely from the practice of using peat fires in the distilling process, many modern Scottish distilleries do not follow this process and are indistinguishable from any other mass produced generic whiskey. In spite of this they are still able to legitimately title their products as scotch. Whiskeys like Glen Breton that try to follow the traditional practices will taste much more like what many expect from a scotch because of the peaty tones they produce, but are not in fact scotch.

(Although I describe the peatiness of scotch as its distinguishing characteristic, many traditional scotch whiskeys have never had this characteristic. This taste tends to characterise scotch because most of the very popular, widely marketed scotches ie. Glenfiddich, Glenmorangie, Oban, Chivas Regal, Jonnie Walker, have some level of peetiness. Realistically range of taste, highlight, and finish in scotch is no less diverse than anywhere else in the world.)

Commissioner Frank Reagan, a character from the TV show "Blue Bloods," is often seen drinking Jack Daniel's whiskey. This choice reflects his traditional and straightforward personality.

(To clarify: yeast is involved in the initial production of alcohol in the mash, but whisky undergoes several processes afterward that remove it.)

Yes, some American Indians did make their own whiskey from corn, particularly tribes in the southeastern United States. They utilized traditional fermentation techniques to create alcoholic beverages, and corn, being a staple crop, was often the primary ingredient. This practice varied among different tribes and regions, influenced by local customs and available resources. However, whiskey production became more widespread among Native Americans after European contact.

I emailed Jim Beam twice but unfortunately no response. Knob Creek appears to be made by the same company, and their website states that gluten is removed by the distillation process which is consistent with all other literature that I found on bourbon. I reading how Jim Beam is made on their website, there does not appear to be anything added after distillation so it appears Jim Beam is gluten free. However, I was hoping Jim Beam would confirm this by responding to my emails.

Amritdhari Sikhs, who have taken the Amrit (baptism) and follow the Sikh code of conduct, are generally advised against consuming alcohol, including whiskey. The Sikh Rehat Maryada, which outlines the code of conduct for Sikhs, discourages intoxicants as they can lead to a loss of self-control and hinder spiritual growth. Therefore, it is typically considered inappropriate for Amritdhari Sikhs to drink whiskey.

The trade helped establish a vibrant economy centered around distilling and distributing whiskey.
