A whisky which is distilled at a single distillery, and which is made completely from a single type of malted grain (usually barley).
This is generally considered the best type of whisky. The most popular varieties are from Scotland although there are a few from Japan.
Some are bottled at cask strength, but most of them are watered down before bottling. The age of the whisky is the whole number of years that have passed between distillation and bottling (during which it was kept in the cask).

An extra question used for setting up an account somewhere in case you forget your password.
However rather than adding extra security like they think they do, they make your account easier to hack because whilst you may have a great unguessable password, these questions are often easy for someone to guess or even know the answer to.
A sensible person would not give an accurate answer to one of these questions and would in fact have an answer that is as hard to guess as a password.

The most popular bridge convention (i.e. the game of bridge) to find a major suit fit after an opening bid or an overcall in No Trumps, particularly 1NT.
The most popular variation is a 2C response to 1NT asking for a 4-card major. It is important for the responder to have an answer to any response he may receive.
There are variations like Puppet Stayman which enables players to open 2NT with a 5 card major and still find a 5-3 major suit fit.

Using Stayman often promises enough strength to invite to game. But even if that is your understanding with your partner, you can play "Garbage Stayman"
