Do flavored whiskeys have a place in this thread, or are the purists going to get mad?
 
Gonna get everybody angry.

Confirmation bias is so thick. "I have paid for this,....it is the best".

How about "I have been interested in (fill in the blank) for years. I have had the opportunity to taste dozens of products. These are a few that I recommend".

In the late 80's, we had an opportunity to participate in a wine tasting seminar. The California Napa's from the early 80's were exploding in the world scene. Learning is so much better than buying.

Generally I agree in regards to learning how to taste/drink wine, whiskey or coffee and then being able to identify the different tasting notes is what I enjoy the most.

Never been much of a fan. But I did have a blackberry Old Fashioned at a distillery in Wisconsin that is one of the best sips I've ever had, of anything.
