WSET Examination Courses London
Berry Bros. & Rudd's examination courses are devised by the Wine & Spirit Education Trust (WSET). These formally and internationally recognised courses are followed by those entering the wine and hospitality trades, but are also ideal for those seeking official recognition of their achievements.
We’d like to assure you that we’re running our WSET courses in line with government advice, with social distancing and hygiene measures in place.
During the course, emphasis is on personal tuition and group discussion in our unique surroundings. As well as delicious lunches, refreshments are served during the day. The course ends with a celebratory glass of Champagne to toast your achievement.
The price covers WSET examination fees, course materials, accredited tuition, use of our equipment and our tasting samples. Course materials and mock papers are sent to you before the course begins, so you can start your studies before classes commence.

Description
The WSET Level 1 Award in Spirits offers a hands-on introduction to the world of spirits and is the perfect course for those pursuing an interest in spirits or those who want to know more about these fascinating drinks. You’ll explore the main styles and types of spirits through sight, smell and taste to develop an understanding of the key factors affecting flavours and aromas. You will be welcomed each Saturday with tea, coffee and biscuits in the morning, before we delve into the fascinating world of vodka, gin, Cognac, rum, tequila and liqueurs. We’ll break each day for a delicious buffet lunch, prepared by our Head Chef Stewart Turner. The course ends with a 45-minute, 30-question exam paper.
