Scotch = Whisky
Irish Whiskey = Whiskey

If you read the bottles in his photographs (or could read the bottles) you'd see what I mean.

The term whisky is generally used for grain spirits that are made in:
Japan
Canada
Scotland
Wales

The term whiskey is for everywhere else including the United States and Ireland.

There is only ONE type of Canadian Whisky that is made using the "scotch" methods (from barley and distilled twice) and I'm proud to say it is made on CAPE BRETON ISLAND in Nova Scotia!

It's called Glen Breton Rare. It cannot be called "Scotch" since it is not made in Scotland.

Now that you got me thinking about it, I think I'll go have a dram!!
