Whisky vs. Whiskey13 Dec
While creating this site I poured (get it) a little bit over spelling it “whisky” or “whiskey.” Of course, I went with the term with the higher search volume and figured I’d write a little content on it another time. Here’s another time.
In doing some research, I was very happy to find the problem had already been thoroughly investigated (whew) by Eric Asimov at the Times.
I think the end result is… cater to your readers. Whatever you prefer, dear readers! As an American, I went directly for the ‘e’ and it’s kind of set in stone at this point.
