Whiskey

Whiskey (or whisky, depending on the region) is a distilled alcoholic beverage made from fermented grain mash, which can include barley, corn, rye, and wheat. The grains are mashed, fermented, and then distilled to create the spirit, which is aged in wooden casks, usually oak, to develop its rich, complex flavors. The aging process gives its distinct character, ranging from smooth and mellow to bold and smoky, depending on the type and brand.
