Customer Review: A Decent Gift
I purchased this as a gift and included some wine. It made a nice compliment to the wine, although I'm somewhat reluctant to say it would hold up on its own.
Customer Review: It's very easy to keep your eye on the prize...
I found that with this kit I was able to stay focused on what to look for in each tasting. The tasting sheets helped me tremendously when there were characteristics present that I couldn't identify. The book inside is quite easy-to-read and flip through. I loved everything about this kit and will continue to use it as a guideline in future tastings.
