Included Aromas: Vanilla (bean) Caramel Honey Cocoa (powder) Brown Sugar Cherry (dried) Tobacco (premium pipe tobacco) Leather (100% genuine leather) Allspice Clove Black Pepper Cinnamon Mint (crushed leaves) Peanut (powder) Oak Corn Wheat Rye *Contains peanuts. Not for consumption. How It Works: Pour some bourbon in a glass and swirl it around gently. Nose (smell) one of the elements, then nose your bourbon. Take a small sip and “chew” the bourbon around in your mouth for 5–10 seconds before swallowing. Nose the element and the bourbon again. The aromas present should be more amplified now. Take note of what aromas you find in the bourbon you’re nosing. If it smells sweet, can you get more specific? Maybe it’s more like vanilla, honey, or brown sugar. If it's spicy, is it a cinnamon spice or black pepper spice? Repeat the process with each element to see what other nuances you can find in your glass. This kit is designed for anyone ready to move beyond just sipping bourbon—especially those who struggle to pick out individual notes when nosing or tasting. If you’ve ever wondered “What exactly am I smelling?”, this is your answer. Use the kit before or during a tasting to identify key aromas, calibrate your nose, and sharpen your senses. It’s the ultimate tool for improving your whiskey vocabulary, boosting your tasting confidence, and getting more enjoyment out of every bottle.
