Years ago this month WSET (Wine & Spirit Education Trust) was founded in London. Today the educational institute is international. More than 100,000 people in 75 countries and in 18 different languages have studied with WSET. When it was founded, none of the students were female. Today, the ratio of women and men is 50/50. WSET was an outgrowth of the Wine Trade Club which began in 1908.
