Great post, but #8 Whisky Origin: Middle East is an epic fail. Distillation originated in the Middle East, but not distillation of alcohol. The earliest records of the distillation of alcohol are in Italy in the 13th century, where alcohol was distilled from wine.
Whisky was invented in Scotland, where the first hard written evidence of whisky production comes from an entry in the Exchequer Rolls for 1494 where malt is sent “To Friar John Cor, by order of the king, to make aquavitae”, enough to make about 500 bottles.
However if you ask my Irish cousins who invented whisky, they will claim they did. Or as they like to spell it, “whiskey”. This is of course not true, we all know it was invented in Scotland😊🥃
