Whisk(e)y Notes

Description

Duration: 2 Week Sprint

Whisk(e)y Notes is designed to help budding whiskey enthusiasts break into the hobby. With a large amount of industry jargon, copy written by marketing departments, and gatekeeping getting involved in whiskey as a hobby can be overwhelming and intimidating. This app helps to remove some of those barriers by creating a private journal to track whiskies you have tried. Simple ratings and no expectations or unnecessary jargon. You will have a chance to learn as you wish to learn and record notes in a way that makes sense to you.
