No, just enough so it becomes homeopathic OJ...

Back in the days of my youth (in between dinosaurs hunts) I used to drink Orange Juice (with Gin in it). Very civilised, I thought.

I tried Gin.
It tastes like a liquefied Christmas tree.

I've tried that technique with Whiskey - still can't drink it neat (or with ice) - and I have tried cheap and expensive flavours, still can't stomach it.
I do love a bit of Southern Comfort* though, and can polish off quite a bit with no trouble.
(* I gather that Southern Comfort is a Bourbon not a Whiskey - before some Whiskey zealot jumps up and down on me...)

Bourbon is Whiskey.
If there are bourbons you like, then there are almost certainly other whiskeys and scotches that you'll like.
BUT there's no reason to do the work to acquire the taste for something you don't like.

Hmmm, interesting - I shall need to do some research.

There is a difference in were they come from:
Whisky (scotch)
Whiskey (all other places)
THereby Bourbon whiskey is the same, where as Bourbon Whisky does not exists...

Yeah - I've just read something similar to this on Wikipedia, you learn something new everyday!!

a HA! I never knew there was a difference in meaning of the spellings.
Bourbon, until recently could only come from Kentucky. But in the last couple years I've seen regional bourbons from New York and Colorado.

It is.
Mix it half-and-half with amaretto and give it in a goblet over ice to the woman of your choice.
She will soon find you devastatingly handsome and desireable.

And to flesh out your understanding a little, Bourbon is a type of whiskey.
Southern Comfort is a whiskey flavoured liqueur.
Although not actually flavoured with whiskey anymore, just whiskey flavouring.

Well, there's your problem. Try it with whisky instead.

Fair point.
Although Wikipedia [^] says:
"Oxford English Dictionary, Second Edition:
'In modern trade usage, Scotch whisky and Irish whiskey are thus distinguished in spelling; whisky is the usual spelling in Britain and whiskey that in the U.S.' "
So it appears I've gone American.
Yeehaa!

Not quite, whisky or whiskey was first brewed on Ireland... By some monks, whisky litterally means Holy water.
