去“e”還是不去“e”是個問題？但這有什麼不同嗎？帶“u”的威士忌的味道和不帶“u”的威士忌的味道是一樣的！這並不重要。 但是，為什麼是蘇格蘭“WHISKY”和波本威士忌“威士忌”呢？讓我們了解更多......因為它可以成為一個很好的對話開場白！ “概括” WHISKEY（或威士忌）一詞的起源在於蓋爾語（一種古老的凱爾特語）單詞“ Uisce beatha” ，意為生命之水。事實上，拼寫爭議甚至可能從這裡開始……因為蓋爾語的蘇格蘭版本將其拼寫為“Uisge beatha”，其中使用 ag 而不是 ac！ 快進到最近，您可能聽說拼寫可能因威士忌生產商的位置而異，例如不帶“e”的威士忌：蘇格蘭、加拿大、日本、澳大利亞、台灣、印度等。帶“e”的威士忌'：美國和愛爾蘭。但這是真的嗎？還有為什麼他們首先拼寫不同？ 一點歷史 讓我們從檢查愛爾蘭的一些舊標籤（下圖）開始吧！你瞧……他們最初似乎也將其拼寫為 WHISKEY（沒有“e”），與蘇格蘭相同。那麼我們是如何對愛爾蘭釀酒廠在他們的威士忌中添加“e”的所有這些困惑而結束的。 故事始於 1830 年代左右，當時一位愛爾蘭消費稅檢查員（所有人！）- Aeneas Coffey發明了“Column Still”（也稱為“Coffey Still”，見下圖），目的是提高效率和降低蒸餾成本（通過對烈酒進行連續蒸餾有效地降低烈酒的濃度，儘管 ABV 較高，但烈酒的味道可能較淡）。然而，愛爾蘭釀酒商拒絕了它，因為他們認為它不如他們的“原始”壺蒸餾威士忌。 圖片來源：scotchwhisky.com 被他的同胞拒絕後，猜猜科菲先生把他的發明帶到了哪裡……是的，你猜對了！蘇格蘭——“節儉”的蘇格蘭人張開雙臂歡迎他的創新。 Column Still（主要用於生產穀物威士忌）極大地降低了威士忌的總體成本，並最終促進了蘇格蘭威士忌的增長和主導地位（鑑於成本效益高的穀物的可用性，最終由“混合”蘇格蘭威士忌引領）威士忌酒）。 然而，傳統的愛爾蘭釀酒師試圖將自己與這種“劣質”威士忌區分開來，並決定將“e”引入威士忌中，以表示由傳統鍋式蒸餾器製成的優質愛爾蘭威士忌。因此，開始在愛爾蘭使用“WhiskEy”一詞。與大多數有爭議的話題一樣，如果您問一些愛爾蘭釀酒廠/歷史學家——“e”背後的故事可能會有所不同！但我們不會捲入這場爭論。 那麼在美國和愛爾蘭，法律要求“E”嗎？ 威士忌中的 E 伴隨著從愛爾蘭到美國的大規模移民來到美國（非常類似於前往加拿大的蘇格蘭人比愛爾蘭人多，他們沒有隨身攜帶 E）。令人驚訝的是，儘管在 1968 年，美國酒精、煙草和火器局實際上指定了本土生產的烈酒的拼寫應該是 – 威士忌（什麼？這裡沒有 E！）。後來放寬了這一點，留給製作人選擇。 Maker's Mark 等各種品牌繼續拼寫沒有 E 可能是為了向他們的蘇格蘭血統致敬（見上面的標籤）。 那麼愛爾蘭呢？歐盟技術文件規定，所有愛爾蘭威士忌都必須帶有銷售名稱“愛爾蘭威士忌”或“Uisce Beatha Eireannach”或“愛爾蘭威士忌”。 結論 很高興知道並牢記在心，但讓我們更加註意玻璃杯中的液體 - 無論它來自哪裡 - 蘇格蘭、日本、愛爾蘭、美國或加拿大！重要的是味道（還是味道？）#Kanpai #Slàinte Mhath
