The Whiskey Taster’s Flavor Guide

Burnt Toast

In the morning
the thing I dislike most
is the nasty smell 
of burning toast
the stink of it
gives me a fit
a lousy way
to start the day
please pop that toast 
before it burns
you know the stench
makes me squirm

Hello Peter … certainly the odour tells the household what you've done and can take some time to go. Not nice at all - thanks Peter - Lindsay
