Question: what is the difference between scotch whiskey and bourbon?
Answer: Scotch: Scotch single malt whisky must be made with 100% malted barley; grain whisky is generally made with a combination of malted and unmalted barley, as well as wheat. Bourbon: Bourbon must be made with a basic recipe ('mash bill') of at least 51% corn (maize), with the remainder made up of rye, wheat and barley.
