Scotch Whisky

The last post I gave you a definition of whisky. Now lets look into what a Dram is. Definitely a small volume of liquid.

Dram (volume)
From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia.

The fluid dram is defined as 1/8 of a fluid ounce, which means it is exactly equal to

* 3.696 691 195 312 5 mL in the U.S. and
* 3.551 632 812 500 0 mL in most other Anglo-Saxon countries.

In the UK, a teaspoon was formerly defined as 1 fluid dram.

Dram is also used informally to mean a small amount of liquid, especially Scotch whisky.

Dram for Life!
