John Cor
http://dbpedia.org/resource/John_Cor an entity of type: Thing
John Cor fue un fraile escocés al que se le atribuye la creación del primer whisky de la historia. El primer registro que da mención del whisky datada el 1 de junio de 1494. En ella, el rey Jacobo IV de Escocia concede ocho boles de malta para fabricar lo que denomina aqua vitae. Previamente no existe registro preciso de cuándo se destiló whisky por primera vez en Escocia o Irlanda. Sin embargo, debió haber conocimiento previo de la producción de la bebida ya que el alquimista árabe Albukassen describía el proceso de destilación en sus escrituras del siglo X.

John Cor is the name of the friar referred to in the first known written reference to a batch of Scotch Whisky on 1 June 1495. The Latin entry in the Exchequer Rolls can be translated as: "To Brother John Cor, by order of the King, to make aqua vitae VIII bolls of malt." An apothecary William Foular from Edinburgh was recorded as making distilled waters and aqua vitae for the Scottish court from December 1506.

The Latin entry in the Exchequer Rolls can be translated as: "To Brother John Cor, by order of the King, to make aqua vitae VIII bolls of malt." Friar John Cor has been identified as a Dominican Friar in the Stirling house https://brill.com/view/title/8182 but also a less secure suggestion has been made that he might be John Kawe who was a Tironensian monk based at Lindores Abbey in Fife. However in Scots Cor would have had a rolled ‘r’ and is unlikely to be confused as or written as ‘Kawe’. He was a servant at the court of James IV. The King gave him a gift of 14 shillings on Christmas Day in 1488, and at Christmas time in 1494 Cor was given black cloth from Lille in Flanders for his livery clothes as a clerk in royal service. He was probably an apothecary. An apothecary William Foular from Edinburgh was recorded as making distilled waters and aqua vitae for the Scottish court from December 1506.
