Whether you're a casual sipper or a serious collector, this kit is the perfect tool to help you identify, articulate, and enjoy the complex aromas that make bourbon so irresistible.

Did you know? Sensory scientists have proven that over 80% of what we taste comes from what we smell. That means training your nose is the fastest way to elevate your bourbon experience—and this kit is built to do exactly that.

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.

About Nose Your Bourbon®

When I got into bourbon in 2015, I knew that I liked the sweet, spicy, and oaky characteristics of bourbon, but I wasn't able to detect specific tasting notes like I read in reviews. I assumed that it was simply a lack of training on my part, and that with practice, I would be able to find and appreciate the type of notes I was reading about. Seth Brown, a good friend of mine with an amazing palate, recommended that I start with the aromas in the spice cabinet (cinnamon, brown sugar, allspice, black pepper, etc), and that by simply spending more time nosing these ingredients while enjoying my bourbon, the notes present in the glass would start to come alive. I was as skeptical at first, but couldn't believe how well it worked. I found that, just like working out any muscle, the more time I spent nosing, the easier the notes were to detect.

So, instead of spending hundreds of dollars on a nosing kit that uses chemical aromas made in a lab, I made my own with real ingredients for the most authentic aromas. As I started sharing photos of my nosing kit in bourbon Facebook groups, it became apparent that I was onto something big, and thus, Nose Your Bourbon® was born.

As of today, I've sold over 17,000 nosing kits through retail and wholesale channels, and have received hundreds of positive reviews from satisfied customers. It's been an incredibly fun and fulfilling journey, and I can't wait to see what's next. I hope that my nosing kits help you detect more nuances, and enjoy your bourbon to the fullest!
