Whisky (or whiskey) is produced in various guises all over the world. Japanese Whisky, Irish Whiskey and American Whiskeys (including Bourbon) are challenging Scotch Whisky, with of them many winning notable awards and accolades. Meanwhile, whiskies from countries as diverse as India, Canada, Sweden, Wales, Taiwanand England are also becoming increasingly noteworthy in both quality and abundance.
The
distillation process spread to Scotland and Ireland by the 15th century
via Alexandrian Greeks, Medieval Arabs and Latin Europeans. The Scots
and the Irish, who already had a well-developed tradition of farming
cereal crops, used the technique to distil from a variety of fermented
grain mashes to produce a spirit, most closely resembling today's new make spirits.
This
spirit was used 'for medicinal purposes' for some time, but started to
become widely adopted as a beverage of choice and a good way to use up
excess grains, keeping them safe from the rats' clutches. Once the
spirit started to be stored in oak barrels, it was noticed that this had
the delightful consequence of providing flavour and colour, giving it a
deeper and more mellow taste than the raw spirit. Today, whisky must be
aged for at least 3 years in an oak Barrel before it can legally be
called "whisky".
The process of distilling fermented grain mash
and aging it in oak barrels to make Whisky (or whiskey) has spread the
world and has resulted in a remarkable range of styles, including Single Malt Whisky, Blended Malt Whisky, Grain Whisky, Rye Whiskey and Blended Whisky (containing both Single Malt Whisky and Grain Whisky).

Duty free shopping offers international travellers a way to save money on a diverse
array of merchandise, from dazzling high-end jewellery to premium liquor. However,
many travellers are not clear how duty free shopping works, or how to make the most
out of the experience.
To begin, a "duty" refers to a tax or fee placed on goods by government entities.
Merchants who import goods and sell them to consumers who are leaving their country
are not charged a duty on these products. This allows sellers to pass the savings
along to their customers, giving savvy shoppers the opportunity to grab fantastic
merchandise at bargain prices.
Travellers can find duty free products at international airports, border towns,
ports, cruise ships and even on-board international flights – and other locations
which cater to international travellers.
