Mustafa,

They are different things. Macallan is a single-malt whisky from one
Scottish distillery. Justerini & Brooks (JB) is a blended whisky, that is to
say, a mix from different provenances to get the same flavour each time. Not
very interesting. Jim Beam is a Bourbon, an American "whisky" made with a
different procedure and also different ingredients (look it up in Wikipedia
if you are interested). Bourbon is called whisky for historical reasons, but
it is not whisky in a strict sense, it is a different drink.

A good rule of thumb is: if you can't spell the name, it is single malt. Ok,
Macallan is an exception, but try Laphroaig :-)

Ouzo I drink from time to time, easy to get here in Madrid. Turkish raki I
have not seen, but looking around I could probably find it too. Is it
similar to ouzo?

(Sorry, not very alt, this one. But it is raining and cold outside, the
right moment for talking about alcoholic beverages, ha ha)
