scottish The word "Scotch" is not limited to whiskey (my drug of choice being Jura single-malt, BTW) and the term "Scotch-Irish" is traditional, "Scot-Irish" having become popular more recently. My mother's grandfather, who was born in Scotland, described himself as being "Scotch." Of course, that may have been a double-entendre, as he was known to be quite fond of Scotch, the whiskey.
