I stumbled upon this Scotch Whisky Nosing Kit and I was wondering if anyone has any experience in these kind of things or knowledge if they are actually useful.

well, if you ask me, the money would be better off spent on minatures rather than just some bottled aromas! Must be a market for it though!

You're probably right. Probably the best strategy to develop your nose would be to buy specific whiskies, one that has lots of peat one that has lots of floral notes et cetera. That way you would probably easier recognize them in other whiskies. So tell me, what is a whisky with lots of peat?
Yeah, anyone wanna develop a rum nosing kit with me?Baron Rupert Liberis wrote:Must be a market for it though!

Highland Park has a mild well rounded peat flavour (one of my personal favorites too!), though peaty flavours do dominate a lot of the island distilleries particularly the Islay Malt whisky's, I'd recommend trying the Bowmore and/or LaphroaigCount Silvio wrote: So tell me, what is a whisky with lots of peat?
