If made in the United States or Ireland, “whiskey” is generally spelled with an E. By contrast, “whisky” made elsewhere (such as Canada, Scotland or Japan) is typically spelled without an E, explains Britannica.com. An easy way to remember this is: If the country’s name contains an E (such as the United States and Ireland), their “whiskey” has an E, too.
The alcohol in Jack Daniel’s whiskey (and all alcoholic beverages) is a strong drug that affects the central nervous system. Drinking too much, too quickly increases the risk of harm, as explained by the National Institute on Alcohol Abuse and Alcoholism. It alters perception and impairs judgment, impulse control, coordination and reflexes. Excessive quantities of alcohol can result in permanent brain damage or death.
