'''Whisky''' (Scottish Gaelic: uisge-beatha), or whiskey (Irish: uisce beatha or fuisce), refers to a broad category of alcoholic beverages that are distilled from fermented grain mash and aged in wooden casks (generally oak). | |||
Different grains are used for different varieties, including: barley, malted barley, rye, malted rye, wheat, and maize (corn). Whisky derives from the Gaelic word for "water" (uisce or uisge), and is called in full uisge-beatha (in Scotland) or uisce beatha (Ireland), meaning "Water of Life". It is related to the [[Latin]] aqua vitae, also meaning "water of life". It is always Scotch whisky, and Irish whiskey. | |||
Whiskey was still in existence in [[2531]] and was used by [[Rear Admiral]] [[Rich]] during a meeting, which created the [[Spartan-III]] program, on the [[ONI]] [[Stealth Cruiser]] [[UNSC Point of No Return|''UNSC'' Point of No Return]]. | |||
