Sage advice needed, I have just made up some whisky using still spirits smoky whisky, when I looked at it this morning it has a slight haze to it. Tastes fine and everything else I made from the same wash looks clear.is it the flavouring that causes the haze? Didn\'t notice it when I first made it up but it was late and my eyes were tired from a certain amount of sampling

Yeah I can see what you mean but the same wash through the same filter is clear as a bell, on closer inspection I think its the bottle as when I poured some in a glass it looked ok
