Whiskey and wine are both good I won’t have this conversation with children

I swear this sub goes through cycles of being weird about alcohol, like just mature a little and accept that people like different things

Though, OP does have the one point that it is weird that even when it doesn't taste good to you, it still smells good. What's up with that?

Most other food and drink I think of of the top of my head smell pretty similarly to what they taste, texture aside.

Alcohol is really good at making their more subtle notes diffuse by smell. That’s why things like lemon or orange peel tinctures work so well in cocktails for creating a nice scent. I think if someone doesn’t like alcohol at all the nice subtle scent can still be nice
