Less-to-more-assertive order is a tutored-flight convention, not a substitute for randomization or counterbalancing in an experiment. Preserve the actual order and carryover limits; do not import Scotch cluster labels unchanged into American-whiskey flights.
Wishart translates the flavor chart into a flight order and explains why the most palate-dominating samples should come last.
Wishart begins a flight with lighter, less peated or cask-dominant whiskies and finishes with strongly peated styles because more forceful flavors can overwhelm subtler samples tasted afterward.
