Q: What is a nosing kit?
A nosing kit is a kit of aromas, effectively smells, that can “guide” and “fine tune” your nose to recognise specific smells.
Q: How can I use it in terms of Whisky?
A person that is “intune” with his/her whisky is a person that can discern flavour and smell. This kit will help you tune sense of smell.
Q: Who should have one of these kits?
This kit however complete is too limited for beginners who want to know how to nose their whisky. A beginner would need guidance from a more experienced person. The perfect person would be an amateur. A person that knows enough but still has way to go.
