the term 'cut' refers to adding water to reduce the high alcohol cask-strength.

That's not how we do it at our Parties. We've got a Gaurnim.

Take one cask. Take one Gaurnim. Take one axe...

Can I just point out that we are talking about whisky here, and not whiskey. They are not the same. Whisky is far superior

It all looks (and probably tastes) like dishwater...

now i'm confused. is whisky a different thing than whiskey ? or is this another spelling dispute between brits and americans ?

Whiskey is also the Irish spelling iirc.

The stuff from Scotland is spelled whisky (and I'm with lazyscot on this regarding quality )

Why do you want to be tossed in tequila? Is this something to do with the spousal unit?

Zelda, Am is right: whisky is the Scottish version, whiskey is the Irish version (and the American). Although not clear-cut, Scottish whisky is distilled twice and Irish whiskey three times. (I have a some vague recollection that American versions are distilled once, but that might be bourbon, or the side effect of too many double singles.) Anyway, here's to uisge beatha, the water of life.
