As a producer, it is extremely important to know where your own product stands in an international comparison in order to better evaluate and use your own market opportunities. As a taster, you expand your horizons a little further with every tasting, as there are always new, exciting products ready to be tasted and evaluated. It makes sense to participate in tastings regularly to train and sharpen one's senses.
