what is the difference between malt whiskey and bourbon?
Bourbon: Whiskey made in America (not just Kentucky, but any state) from 51% or more corn, and aged for any amount of time in new, charred, oak barrels. Rye: Made just like bourbon, but contains 51% or more of rye. Malt Whiskey: Made just like bourbon, but with 51% or more of malted barley as an ingredient.
