I did safety work in Glenmorangie distillery over 50 years ago. It don’t taste the same today.

Famous Grouse - 5
Johnnie walker - 2

My Sloe Gin last year -10
My Damson vodka -7
My gins oscillate from 2 to 7

I didn't do much new in 2018 apart from essences, which is where this forum was when it started .
Prestige Bootleg Baileys (Irish Cream) gets only a 9 because of the need of a daily shake.
The rest of their stuff varies between 5 and 7 for me.
Beware their Jamaica Rum, and maybe halve the concentrate?
Although I cut back on all of them.

For those pondering the phrase "age Statement" , Scotch is now in such high demand worldwide that distilleries are now bottling and selling malt far short of the traditional 10 years in a cask.
You really can taste the difference.
