Wissen
Did you know?
Scotland or Ireland?
To this day it is still being debated. The Irish claim that the Irish patron Saint Patrick, who Christianized the island, brought the art of distilling to the island from the Mediterranean countries.
Somit wäre der erste Whisky auf Irland destilliert und wohl auch konsumiert worden. Die Schotten halten mit einer Urkunde aus dem Jahr 1494 dagegen, auf der ein Verkauf von Gerste zur Whisky-Produktion verbrieft wurde. Ausserdem wurde Saint Patrick im römischen Britannien geboren, vermutlich auf heute schottischem Gebiet. Trotzdem scheint die Geschichtsforschung mittlerweile mehrheitlich der irischen Mönchstheorie recht zu geben.
