America
(The United States is producing whiskies that insult the Scots, anger the Japanese, and make the Irish jealous. While the rest of the world watches, homegrown distillers are winning the hearts and the livers of our generation. There's good sense to it all: the country was literally and politically founded on the fact that American whiskey is a beautiful thing and worth making, or at least drinking, if you don't own a still. Believe me, our amber waves of grain weren't all turned into bread)

Willett
(For now, there are two iterations of the Willett name: first, a collection of sourced whiskeys (Willett Family Estate Bottled, F.E.B) bottled by Kentucky Bourbon Distillers (KBD), and second, a distillery that reopened in January 2012, after being shuttered for decades. Today the distillery has a 1,200 gallon pot still and eight rick houses and in 2014 released its first in-house expression, a two-year old rye)

Tennessee
(Tennessee is deeply rooted in the whiskey-making process and is no slouch compared to its bigger, northern brother. Much of the Tennessee whiskey growth was stunted after prohibition, as the ban lasted a bit longer in Tennessee, but the Volunteer State is doing its best to catch up. Companies such as George Dickel and Jack Daniel's have been instrumental, producing millions of cases a year and claiming that the "Lincoln County Process" makes them uniquely a "Tennessee Whiskey." Nashville companies, such as Nelson's Greenbrier Distillery (Belle Meade) have made their mark, producing high-quality products that stand up to the criticism of aficionados around the country. The Lincoln County Process is a step used in producing almost all Tennessee whiskeys. The whiskey is filtered through, or steeped in, charcoal chips before going into the casks for aging)

West
(When it comes to whisk(e)y making, anything west of the Mississippi River is, once again, the "Wild Wild West." Shedding the restraints of high government regulation on bourbon-crafting, the West is left to do what they have always done best: innovate. There is no one experimenting with the spirit as much as those in the Rockies and on the West Coast. Here, you will see the biggest revival of the Scottish single malt tradition with companies such as Westland, Stranahan's and St. George Spirits. Other brands, including Charbay, Slaughter House and High West are taking it to the limit by blending different types of whiskies together and/or aging them in dessert wine or vermouth casks)

Scotland
(Just as bourbon can only be made in the U.S., Scotch can only be made in Scotland. It must be made with water and malted barley, and be aged in oak casks for a minimum of three years. The type of oak barrel does not matter. There are six distinct regions of Scotland: Highlands, Lowlands, Campbeltown, Islay, Speyside and The Islands, although the latter is not recognized by the SWA (Scotch Whisky Association). Typically (but not always) these regions will share similar styles in their single malt whiskies. If a Scotch is not listed in one of these regions, such as Cutty Sark or Compass Box, it usually means it is a blend, using many different Scotch whiskies from around the country to make their recipe)

Ireland
(The Irish were the first to start distilling whiskey, but after a long war for independence and consequently, a vicious civil war, the whiskey making business took a large hit, turning hundreds of distilleries into only a handful. Irish whiskey is making a comeback, however, with brands like Jameson and Teeling leading the charge. Irish whiskey is made similarly to Scotch; distilled with malted barely and aged in oak casks for a minimum of (3) years. But due to taxation of malted barely in the 1800s, the Irish started incorporating un-malted barley into their recipe. That, along with the common triple-distillation, gives Irish whiskey a lighter and more approachable flavor, with hints of fruit and grass. Like Scotch, Irish whiskey has some single malt varieties (Quiet Man), and some blends (Tullamore D.E.W.), but they also add a third category to the mix with the single pot still reserve (Green Spot). Here, they are free to use any grain they like, but it must all be distilled from a single-pot still, similar to bourbon)

Europe
(Whisky's worldwide popularity has caused a resurgence of craft distillers on the European continent, offering avant-garde interpretations of classic styles. Brenne Whisky's Allison Parc believes that whisky has a terroir much the same as wine, and insists on using locally sourced grain and water from her home base of Cognac. Zuidam came out of the gate swinging with a bold and boozy iteration of rye. Any choice is sure to be delicious—European distillers are known for the nuanced and balanced spirits they create)

Japan
(It's not going to smell like sushi or impart a burning wasabi sensation. Because the barley and most of the handmade copper stills are imported from Europe, its taste will fall in line with whisky made in the Scottish tradition. It is produced and served with subtle Japanese nuances that may be lost to a first- or second-time drinker)
