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.

Q: What do you get in the kit?

  • 40 page guide booklet will make scotch whisky nosing
  • 24 aroma nosing samples carefully selected by the leading specialist Aroma Scientist, George Dodd, in conjunction with ScotchWhisky.net

Q: How much does it cost?
$225 USD

Q: Where can you buy one from?

You can buy it from Scotch Whisky Nosing Kit website
