Isn't the only difference between the two words the spelling? I do believe that the one is the Scottish spelling and one is the Irish spelling. There are different kinds of whiskies/whiskeys but as far as I know it's not depended on the spelling but rather what is used to make the whisky/whiskey. Or am I wrong?
well necuno has described it pretty much
but generally:
Whisky = Scottish
Whiskey = Irish
American whiskeys for some reason have an E in them, which is weird since I'm sure I read they where started by a scot.

Scotch isn't at all bad, love the stuff, just like the Irish ones so much more. Americans on the other hand can't make whiskey (how ever they want to spell it) for shit IMHO
