Grouping excludes provenance as an explicit clustering input, but that does not establish that the underlying tasting notes were collected blind or free of marketing influence. Preserve dataset/version and conflicting chart assignments; cluster similarity is not identity, quality or an American-whiskey taxonomy.
The section introduces a classification based on flavor data and explains how cluster analysis groups broadly similar profiles; the fourth-edition dataset continues onto the following sheet.
