Hogo69 if you don’t like the taste of alcohol, don’t. Just because it’s expensive whiskey, it doesn’t mean it won’t have that alcohol taste to it. Liquor burns like liquor, no way around it
I interviewed this man years ago.for my local TV station. Unfortunately at that time I knew nothing about whiskey other than I didn't like it. Almost two decades later and I'm just starting to appreciate his wisdom.
Really like this guy and his presentation. Ten years ago you couldn’t have paid me to drink whiskey but now, thanks to my taste changing, and watching a few select videos on how to get the best from a whiskey, I’m a big fan!
Ryan S I kinda love him lol I mean I don't necessarily think this is the end all beat all way of nosing/tasting whiskey but his excitement is infectious and if he can get more people drinking good whiskey all the better. I think his way of doing things opens people up to trying it. because he is so over the top it makes it seem more approachable. less snooty and serious.
The Gooch I agree with both of you. This guy is trying to give advice to other people when he is blending tons of single malts with grain, probably adding a great deal of e150a to produce that dark color, and then comes up with a gimmick method of tasting whisky. No prominent whisky taster dumps whisky like that, and certainly none of them condone blending single malts with grain whisky and adding e150a to whisky to give it that fake color.
Magnificent and well polished. His education is first rate. He is the NOSE, with the knowledge of just how to make you want to buy his brand of whiskey. Bravo Richard, Bravo! You are a classy guy!

Nothing smells better than a dram of good whisky under your nose with a fresh fart lingering in the background. Think I'm joking? Give it a whirl and tell me I'm wrong
The problem is, if you go and buy a sophisticated whisky like a dalmore 15, then throw a bunch of ice in it, you will kill most of the smell and flavour that someone else would have enjoyed. You might as well have bought johnny walker red.
@@roberts.8430 if thats how you like it im not going to tell you not to, after all it is kind of refreshing, but be aware that cooling it will dull the smell and taste as well. Even without the water, if youre not aware of that already. If you havnt tried without id highly reccommend giving it a go. Hell i had nose surgery to improve my breathing and my enjoyment from the smell improved massively!
@@slickstrings You know that's a great point. A lot of times I drink it neat, and chilling does dull it. I guess it doesn't make sense to watch a connossoier of whiskey and outright reject the advice. I'm gonna sacrifice a little whiskey and try it.

I envy you guys. In india our whisky are rums basically. And the only real whisky maker amrut ships 80% of its single mault to other countries. I have to spend 150$ minimum to buy a real scotch single malt.
the water as you may or may not know is take the "intensity" down aka the alcohol content like say 40% if you can handle it thats fine but some people like to bring it down just a tad to say 20% so its not as intense
***** wrong. Adding water actually brings out the flavours in the whisky as a chemical reaction. 2 drops of water is all you need, and that won't really take the alcohol volume down by any noticeable degree.
