No need to start a flame war here... just honestly curious as to who here can and cannot taste the caramel colouring added to some whiskies. I myself have not come upon a whisky that I felt was ruined by the taste of caramel (supposedly toffee if you listen to some). Some glasses smell like toffee after I am finished with the dram and I have always wondered if this was the offending caramel but I haven't gotten around to deciding what, if any, problem caramel may or may not be causing.
I'd be interested in knowing if others on the group have ever felt a dram was ruined by the taste of caramel, or felt that the taste was obviously intrusive.
