La diferencia entre = Bourbon y Whiskey?

It is only bourbon if it is made in Bourbon County, SOLAMENTE SE LE DICE *BOURBON* AL WHISKEY HECHO EN EL CONDADO DE *BOURBON* Scotch is only scotch if it is made in Scotland. ESCOSES SOLAMENTE ES ESCOSES SI ESTA HECHO EN ESCOCIA. The same style of whiskey can be made anywhere, but it can't be called bourbon. EL MISMO TIPO DE WHISKEY PUEDE SER FABRICADO EN CUALQUIER LADO, PERO *NO* SE LE PUEDE LLAMAR *BOURBON* More than 50 percent of the grain used to produce bourbon must be corn and it must be aged for a minimum of two years in oak barrels. MAS DEL 50 PORCIENTO DEL GANO USADO PARA PRODUCIR *BOURBON* DEBE DE SER DE ELOTE, Y DEBE DE SER AÑEJADO POR UN MINIMO DE 2 AÑOS EN BARRILES DE ROBLE. Those are simply industry standard, most of distilleries age bourbon for a much longer period of time and use up to 75 percent corn grain. ESOS SON SENCILLAMENTE LAS NORMAS INDUSTRALES, Y LA MAYORIA DE LOS DESTILATORIOS AÑEJAN EL *BOURBON* POR UN PERIDO MUCHO MAS LARGO Y USAN HASTA UN 75 PORCIENTO DEL GRANO DE ELOTE. One point of difference between bourbon and other types of whiskey is the inability to add flavor or color enhancement at the time of bottling. UN PUNTO DE DIFERENCIA ENTRE EL *BOURBON* Y OTROS TIPOS DE WHISKEY ES LA INABILIDAD DE AGREGAR ENCARECIMIENTO AL SABOR O COLOR AL MOMENTO DE ENVASAR EL WHISKEY.
