Whiskey yeast is a clean-fermenting high-proof yeast.  You can get away
with most clean-fermenting yeasts but you'll get a lower yield.  There
are a lot of differences between commercial whiskey yeasts, though, and
there are some folks who still are using older strains that are closer
to beer or champagne yeasts.
