Whisky and whiskey are two spellings of the same word, referring to a distilled alcoholic beverage made from grain mash. The difference lies in the spelling, which is determined by the location of where the spirit is made. Whisky is the spelling used for the spirit made in Scotland, Canada, and Japan, while whiskey is the spelling used for the spirit made in Ireland and the United States. Both whisky and whiskey are made from a grain mash, such as corn, rye, wheat, or barley. The mash is fermented, distilled, and then aged in wooden barrels. The resulting spirit has a distinct flavor profile depending on the type of grain used, the distillation process, and the length of time it is aged.
