Faults Aroma Masterclass Kit - 30 Signature Faults + Training Guide

Know instantly when a bottle has gone wrong — and exactly why.

Cork taint. Oxidation. Brettanomyces. Volatile acidity. Every wine professional can name a fault in one sniff, because a trained nose protects every bottle they serve, sell, or cellar. The Faults Aroma Masterclass Kit trains you on the 30 signature faults that occur in production, winemaking, maturation, and even uncorking — the most complete fault-detection training you can do at home.

What's Inside

• 30 laboratory-calibrated fault essences — from TCA cork taint to barnyard brett, oxidation, and reduction
• A structured training guide that explains each fault: what it smells like, what causes it, and whether the bottle can be saved
• Professional aroma strips for clean, controlled nosing practice
• Professional fault-detection technique — the same discipline sommeliers use on every service

How It Works

1. Nose a fault blind and try to name it.
2. Learn it — the guide tells you what it is and what went wrong in the bottle's life.
3. Catch it in the wild — never unknowingly serve, sell, or cellar a flawed bottle again.

Essential for sommeliers, restaurant and retail staff, winemakers, and serious collectors — and the fastest way for an enthusiast to develop a professional's protective instincts.
