Carlton's profile describes Nancy Fraley's quality-first distillate selection, barrel matching, maturation monitoring and stock assessment. In the blending pyramid, a base provides the main profile, middle components remedy deficits such as dryness, mouthfeel or sweetness, and nuance components add spicy, fruity or floral distinction.

Ready as a source locator, not independent claim verification. E-reader capture screens, not print pagination. Direct interview reporting, not a controlled sensory study. Professional barrel-scale logic can suggest consumer experiments but provides no guaranteed percentages. Her intensive 200-barrel-per-day example is explicitly discouraged, not a tasting schedule to adopt. Focus locator: original PDF screen 156, reader location 1244.
