Opened 100 k pack , best krychowiak and juanfran , im done . Rip 20 , why did I even do it . <| sep |> I advise that if you ' re reviewing a whisky from a bottle you own , don ' t review the first pour . Wait a while . Let the bottle be open at least a month and have at least three or four pours before reviewing . Many bottles take time to open up , they change . Also try leaving the whisky in the glass a while at least once , the higher proof whiskies usually are much better rested a bit . If you ' re reviewing a sample or a bar pour , you won ' t have this luxury perhaps . Remember , the way we interpret flavour has just as much to do with our mindset and visual perception as it does with our taste and smell . Most people are unable to identify more than three flavours in any type of beverage , so don ' t think you need to pick out a dozen or more nuanced flavours many times , we don ' t really taste them , we feel them if that makes any sense . Just write down what feels right . Your banana may be my peach , your caramel may be my vanilla , and so on . Just have a good time , and DRINK !
