Context and limitations
These contrasts are source-specific tasting descriptions, not fixed analytical profiles. Acidity, phenolics, aroma and body should not be collapsed into one strength score or assigned directly to whiskey finishing casks.
Interpretation
Retain the source's personal and wine-specific context. Do not turn the observation into a fixed whiskey property, a tested blend formula or an unsourced causal claim.
