In America, it is very traditional when you're making whiskey to add tails. But for brandy that is not aged, that needs to stand on its own and be bright and clean, you would never add the tails. The barrel acts as a filter, and the barrel will pull out some of those off-putting flavor notes or smells. When you release that whiskey after four or five years, it's going to be rounded,. It's going to have a flavor that I would say is very easily recognizable as an American whiskey.
