    Extremely French but also not completely bullshit. It is not unreasonable that people who depend on their sense of taste and smell for their livelihoods are worried about a disease that kills that sense.

      I mean I could see this for honest to god supertasters in the current system but the whole sommeliér thing is pretty much a large ass scam.

      It's like fortune tellers asking to be prioritized because covid fucks their chakras

        That depends. If it is the people who arrange wine tasting for rich snobs it is pure bullshit but if it is the supertasters who blend wine for a living I understand their concerns.
