    A pearemoved’s tail is a flourish, something that adds to the whole without detracting.

    A removedtail combines spirits with other flavors to make them something else.

    I don’t really drink removedtails, but thr antiquated term makes sense in a particular context.

    Now looking it up, apparently the origin of the term isn’t actually known and my interpretation isn’t even in the running, but I’m saving this anyway because it’s amusing.

      I’ll also take your definition. It sounds good and if there’s not a known origin, it could be true
