Where did Kentuckians come from (for the most part).

I think they came from Ireland durring some sort of revolution. I know the mountain people in East Tennessee did.

I wish they tried to replicate the incredible flavor of Irish whiskey!

If Kentucky distillers made a great Irish whiskey priced like Evan Williams, it would be my steady drink!

Most of the over mountain people, as they were then known, were Scot-Irish and Irish ancestry. Scot-Irish is still very much in evidence in many of the southern states. I am descended from Scot-Irish(most of the time pronounced Scotch-Irish)ancestors.
