The best whiskey is Famous Grouse, so just judge the color based on that.

Colour is a meme as long as caramel colour or wet barrels are allowed. You can oly trust bourbon.

Don't think I've ever even seen a whisky lighter than maybe "burnished", had no idea pale yellow or clear whiskies exist

The flavours blend into each other, you don't just pick random points on the wheel.

>> No.17115189

the older the whisky the darker the colour.
that said blends and even most whiskys up to 12 years of age have added caramel coloring.
for reference a 12 yo uncoloured will be 0.2-0.4 on OPs pic

Age doesn't have all that much effect on color.
It's mostly storage conditions and aldulteration.
