酒在超市 4000 版聚

而家我都係好懶,真係鐘意就寫下就算,不過咁,有好野總會介紹俾大家既。



上星期二考完試,氣都未回哂又一口氣join左兩個tasting event,美其名係tasting event,其實咪又係咁,之不過,都有d gimmick既。

講番正題既4000版聚先,之前已經join過一次 (3000個陣),個page而家都唔少人睇 (俾我當初add個陣得千幾個多好多)。版主都好有心咁介紹下超市有咩酒買得有咩係伏既,雖然而家個方向可能改左少少,仲有sake添,不過唔緊要,咁樣反而仲有多d新野睇。其中一支仲要福島縣既 “大七純米生酛”,當然有人聽到怕怕,但你知道實際地理位置既話問題不大的。而且在溫燗飲就岩岩好,本身米味可以好warming的。

呢次因為人多既關係,其實分左幾張檯坐,但係一人帶一支酒之後,中間張檯就變左一字長蛇陣,相機都映唔哂。

我地係有諗過整唔整番個page,介紹下飲過既wine,join過d咩event,不過呢,個個都咁懶,講左十年都係唔會成事架啦。算啦,都係睇番人地個d先。

WSET - Diploma exam (June 2014 - unit 1, unit 4)

這次的 WSET Diploma 的 Spirit (unit 4) 及 Beverage Industry (Unit 1) 考試終於完成。考完的時候我只是感覺到右手震顫得利害,無他,很久沒有考過論文題也。

在這裡我不打算討論考試內容,只是談一下對考試的觀感啦。雖然準備 unit 1 所花的時間比spirit的theory及tasting的部分來看不算多,頂多是比較花時間上網做research,但其實 unit 1 及 unit 4 一併考也頗為辛苦,

不過,我依然認為這次準備不足、深度不夠且準備的內容也僅僅只能在考試扼要地回答。而且現在不像讀書的時候那麼好記性,考理論題時也要花點時間回帶。至於tasting,大家都認為第一支比較難估。

雖然Unit 1考的內容與預備的相距不遠,但在時間管理上要改進一下。連續寫了那麼久的字,寫都寫到手跛,而且當年讀書不是文科出身,對這樣連續寫字的考試,幾乎沒有經驗。

還是希望這次考試合格啦。


The WSET Diploma exam for Spirit (unit 4) and Beverage Industry (Unit 1) finally comes to an end yesterday. I am just feeling tired as my right hand is already very tired after long time essay writing, as I have not taken any essay type question these years.

I am not intended to discuss those exam content, just talking about the feeling for the exam. It is quite harsh to take unit 1 and 4 together, although the time you need to spend on unit 1 (mainly doing research on the web) is not very much compared with spirit tasting and theory. 

Still, I admit, my preparation was not very in-depth and those content were just enough to write a reasonable length in the examination environment. My memory was not as good as I was young, and trying hard to  recall my memory when doing spirit theory question in the exam. For the tasting session, most of the people are frustrated with the exact type of spirit.

For the unit 1 question, it was not very far away from my expectation but need to do better on time management, and it is really really tired for continuous writing. We did not expect this will beat us much, may be we are not used to such condition for my science and engineering background in the past.

After all, I still hope that I can get a pass on both papers.
