Whisky: do sugar heads qualify?

[Alchemist75]

I was explaining to my buddy the other night what a sugar head was and that using a combination of corn, grains and sugar is a species a sugar head. Of course we were discussing it over a glass of my unaged breakfast cereal hooch which tastes almost exactly like whisky. He asked me if a grain based sugar head qualified as whisky. I immediately went to Wikipedia to see what was stated regarding the bottom line definition of whisky but I didn't find the answer I was looking for. So, does a sugar head flavored with corn and or grains qualify as whisky? I always got the impression that whisky had to be made from malted ingredients but maybe I'm wrong. What's the final word on this one kids?
