I may have misunderstood but I think the issue here is that what we have is a taaruvos chametz - a mixture of chametz and other ingredients<br>

But whiskey is *not* a taaroves, it's chametz itself.<div class="im"><br></div></blockquote><div><br><br>Does adding water to liquid chametz make it a taaroves? Scotch whisky has water added when it's bottled. <a href="http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Scotch_whisky#Bottling">http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Scotch_whisky#Bottling</a> says that cask strength is 50%-60% alcohol while bottled whisky is normally 40%-46%. If my math is right, that would mean that anything between 8% and 33% of the bottle would be water.<br>
