    Whiskey Makers Court Jewish Market

    Part of the spirit’s appeal to many Orthodox Jews is that most whiskey is naturally kosher. In contrast, wine, owing to its long connection to Jewish tradition, must satisfy many regulations to earn a hechsher, the symbol of kosher certification.

    I love the label of the bottle on the far right in the photo: "Loch Chaim". Say it fast. . .

    Not really, since the article also deals with other whiskies such as bourbon.

    Dale: Thanks. I've been looking for something more appropriate than Irish whiskey to wash down my matza balls and gefilte fish.

    My Glenmorangie is marked Kosher by The Union of Orthodox Jewish Congregations. It's something I've never even thought about. Interesting!
