- @DramTasticVoyage I'm currently using ralfy's method for taking notes, basically just finding the 3 primary smells or flavors.

- @Cesspool_Sinner Part of that empty glass smell phenomenon is the lack of alcohol presence.

- @Cesspool_Sinner Let me know what you think of the Ardbeg! That one has a very polarized reaction. People either love it or despise it.
