You forgot to look up the definition of schnapps.
No, I didn't. Please see below. If you have any more questions, please
feel free to ask. No question is too stupid!
From this site:
http://www.physics.uq.edu.au/people/...iskeymore.html
What is whiskey?
Whiskey is a barrel-aged distilled spirit made from grain or malt. It
differs from other types of grain alcohol in that it absorbs colour
and flavour from the barrels during aging,
it retains more flavour from the fermented mash by being distilled at
a lower proof
and being less thoroughly filtered. As a result, it is much more
flavoursome than vodka. Unlike gin and akvavit, it doesn't have other
flavourings added.
And from this website:
http://www.webtender.com/db/ingred/125
Schnapps
--------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Generic name for a flavorful alcoholic beverage made from grain or
potato spirits, and flavored with various herbs or fruits. Schnapps
can range from sweet, like a liqueur, to dry as an infused vodka.
Denmark and Germany produce the majority of schnapps

Basskisser,
Do you know how to read? The very first sentence in your definition is:
"Whiskey is a barrel-aged distilled spirit made from grain or malt."
Schnapps is not barrel-aged, and by your own definition is not a Whiskey.
You dumb **** it CONTAINS whiskey......
are you going to comment on the REST of the definitions?
We will ignore the fact that the vast majority of Schnapps is made from
potatoes. While you can use grain alcohol instead, it still does not
qualify as a whiskey, because it is not barrel aged.
Keep up the good work, your record is still intact, wrong again.
PS It does seem like you learn a lot from Harry, I see you even copy his
technique of using sock puppets and having conversations with yourself.

Schnapps is not whiskey, and it can be very expensive.
Yes it IS made from grain alcohol, or WHISKEY. What is confusing you
is your desire to sound like you know what you're talking about, when
in fact you don't.
Get a dictionary.

Don, be nice to Henry, he's just an old drunkard, and his mind has
been eaten up by cheap whiskey long ago.
Post proof he drinks cheap whiskey.
Okay!

No proof yet. Schapps is not whiskey, and may not be cheap. Next try at
a
proof?
First place, it's Schnapps, both you, and Henry spelled it wrong.
Second, Schnapps IS made from grain alcohol, or....whiskey.

So what? That does not mean it is whiskey. Apple pie is made with flour.
Is apple pie therefore flour?
No, but it would mean that when you were eating apple pie, that you
would, in fact be eating flour. If you were drinking Schnapps, you'd
be drinking whiskey.

They

Plenty. For people that can put together complete sentences, have the
ability to think, and can type, it takes very little time at all.
What does "shut to **** up" mean Kevin? You spewed this forth upon the
group yesterday and you have not clarified what you were trying to
communicate.
What do you expect from someone that thinks schnapps is whiskey?
