  • Talk about your blog post on creating a Pappy Van Winkle nosing sample
  • Have you found two particular brands of bourbon that are two polar opposites of one another?
  • If someone purchases a kit, is there a 24-hour turnaround time or how long does it take to better develop your olfactory senses?
  • Do aromas change based on density levels depending on the type of glass its in?
