Not many more samples to go, several in fact, and then my tour winds down. Unfortunately I botched my first Longmorn as a few drops turned into a torrent when I was to lazy and used the tap (don't worry I have a .5 micron whole house carbon block filter so not a drop of anything but pure h20 touches my precious whiskey :-) ). Hard to judge something that has been over watered, bit like rating a catcus on how it performs living in a fish tank. Still it was an interesting experiment and I didn't completely tip it over the edge. Also they do say that some tasters bring the abv down to 30% to get all the nuances out so one could say I'm strictly following protocol. Ah who am I kidding....more whiskey flavoured water than whiskey. Still lovely vanilla, honey and no bitterness to be had (not sure if that is a side affect of over watering). Prob would have been a 3.5.

@Rick_M I'm sure he'll forgive me in the name of chasing whiskey perfection :-)
@Soba45- I don’t think @PBMichiganWolverine would approve of your chemistry lesson. :)
