BlindDrink is a blind tasting companion for wine, beer, gin and whiskey: train your palate, keep structured tasting notes, and manage your bottle collection in one place. BLIND TASTING, THE WAY PROFESSIONALS TRAIN Blind tasting is how sommeliers and beer judges learn: remove the label and judge only what is in the glass. BlindDrink brings that method to your table. Hide a bottle's identity, evaluate it on its own merits, then reveal how close you were. STRUCTURED TASTING CARDS Follow a guided sheet through appearance, nose, palate and finish, with fields adapted to each beverage. Add personal notes, rate each bottle 1 to 5 stars, and save every card to build your own tasting archive over time. TASTE ALONE OR WITH OTHERS - Solo: add your own bottles and fill in tasting cards at your own pace, no group required - Guided: an organizer leads the session and controls the pace while everyone follows live - Recognition: identify grape variety, denomination, vintage, country and style, with scores based on how accurate your identification was ADD BOTTLES BY PHOTO Photograph a label and let the assistant read producer, denomination, vintage and style for you. Import several bottles at once and review every result before saving. REFERENCE DATA Built-in references for grape varieties, denominations, wine regions, beer styles and spirit categories, with smart autocomplete so filling in a card takes seconds. REAL-TIME SESSIONS All devices stay in sync through the cloud. Invite people with a QR code or a direct link, with no sign-up required for guests. Choose a difficulty level and an optional round timer from 1 to 30 minutes. WINE, BEER, GIN & WHISKEY BlindDrink covers four beverage worlds in one app, each with dedicated fields and tasting cards built around its own flavour vocabulary. YOUR CELLAR One cellar for all four beverages: wine, beer, gin and whiskey are stored side by side, each with its own fields, and every space can be filtered by type. And it is not just an inventory — a cellar that's actually beautiful to look at. Each storage space has its own dedicated visual interface: - Wine rack: dark wood shelf grid with per-zone temperature display - Fridge: neon theme with LED indicator and real-time temperature - Display cabinet: gold grid on black background for your finest bottles - Pantry: sortable list with filters by beverage type, origin, producer and price Track the estimated value of your collection, add bottles by photographing the label, and browse distribution stats by beverage type with interactive charts. YOUR PROGRESS - XP earned by completing tasting cards and identifying bottles - Ten levels, from Novice to Supreme Sommelier - Thematic achievements across all tasting styles - Global leaderboard and session history with map view PDF EXPORT Generate professional reports for every tasting: bottle sheets, photos, tasting notes, scores. Choose what to include and share the document with your group. PRIVACY BlindDrink does not require a mandatory account. Join as an anonymous guest or sign in with Google to save your history across devices. RESPONSIBLE BY DESIGN BlindDrink is about recognising what is in the glass, not about how much you drink. The app never asks you to drink, never tracks quantities and never rewards consumption: points come only from correctly identifying a beverage's characteristics. Intended for adults of legal drinking age in their country. Please taste responsibly. COMPLETELY FREE BlindDrink is free to use: no subscriptions, no in-app purchases, no ads.

Verdict
The clearest difference is update cadence: Blind Drink at fortnightly against TempSpike's every 5 weeks. TempSpike's advantage is device support (4 vs 2) and iOS requirement (10.0 vs 15.5). On price, ads and in-app purchases there is nothing between them.
