Hey now, my pallet is high definition lol; it’s just that I really dislike the taste of ethanol

I can pick out flavor profiles pretty well, especially since I have family members who enjoy doing so, but having a good sense of taste doesn’t mean I’m going to like everything I taste.

I’ll admit it is interesting to notice complex combinations and just interesting from the chemistry standpoint that we can create notes of fruits or vanilla just by selecting the right brewing container material. But complexity =/= goodness.

If you gave me the decision to choose between a well made Michelin Star level dish but with a strong flavor I greatly dislike (like fennel) or choose a basic homemade grilled cheese sandwich, I would probably take the sandwich
