Hello,
Welcome to Healthcare Magic.

Whisky contain alcohol. Many person think low dose of alcohol, used per day safer for health and many alcohol manufacturing companies also promote it, but it is not true. Any amount of alcohol used per day is harmful for health.

If a person used alcohol daily then he stopped getting its effect on current doses and tend to increase doses (Also called: Tolerance for previous doses), which gradually lead to dependance on it.

Wishing you good health and all the best.
