Not like that either. If i make moonshine from grain or potatoes, there is distinct difference in taste. The thing with blended whiskeys generally is that some of the blend is usually grain whisky which have lot lighter taste to it, which creates a different taste. Making of spirits its not making of pure ethanol, so the distilled product already have clear taste differences.
