Bake approximately 1 1/2 hours, until lightly browned on top. Remove from oven. Leave it in the tube pan.

In a saucepan, heat butter until thoroughly melted. Add sugar, water and whiskey; stir. Lightly boil for 10 minutes, then remove from heat and cool for 3 minutes. Pour over cake while it is still in the pan. Let cool for 1 hour, then remove cake from tube pan right side up, and place on cake plate. Best results if left overnight.
