In Scotland during a tour, a fellow gave us a lecture about Scotch with the purpose of proving it isn't all taste the same, and the difference is in the water. Gave us samples (I eventually passed on some at the end as I was beginning to feel the effects - doesn't take much for me) and sure enough, as he described, each Scotch from various bottlers had a distinctive taste depending upon the source of water at the distillery.
It definitely can effect the taste! I wouldn't make scotch from this particular stream, unless you were going for a truly brutal scotch.

My boy Duke. The harness is to move him, since he is now paralyzed.

Jeannie, digging in the sand at the creek, then plopping into the hole. A35/2.8 at f3.5 on *ist D. It was just after sunset, so I had to open up the lens & jack up the ISO:

So, getting caught in a downpour is a whisky situation.

My favourite phrase connected with whisky distillation is the "Angels' share".The amount of alcohol which evaporates from the casks during maturation.
