Over on Whisky For Girls, Rachel MacNeill recently posted an English-Gaelic guide to translating the flavors of whisky – uisge beatha (‘water of life’).
I’ve taken the liberty of making a ‘whisky flavour wheel’ from her list, and I hope I haven’t made too many mistakes! But I thought it would be a fun tool, and Rachel has promised a tutorial in proper pronunciation soon.
It’s not as complex as the one I’ve been using, but it’s quite enough for a bit of bilingual tasting and fun.
