As you may have gathered, I got a whiskey advent calendar for 2023. I am still not through it. The main reason for that is that it’s heavy on American whiskeys, and I have come to the conclusion that I hate American whiskeys. The reason is very simple – corn tastes like gummy bears and corn chips, and doesn’t belong in whiskeys. So each American whiskey I come across, while I try to say something intelligent about its flavors and aromas, they all smell and taste like gummy bears and cleaning sprays.

I have said what I have said.
