Could not find meaningful explanation of the University of Wine (UCT Business School?)

Quartz
VBS Mutual Bank
VBS Mutual to sponsor sommeliers?

The reptilian University of Wine may have failed to gain traction after the collapse of the Quoin Rock sale and UCT Business School (with that marvelously appropriate abbreviation BS) may be the laughing stock of the Cape Town historical community after the assertion by one of their lecturer’s (Dr. Toothie James) that Simon van der Stel wrote Jan van Riebeeck’s diaries, but every cloud has a silver lining. Quartz reports that sommeliering dagga has a sparkling future.
Which judging by the dishevelled appearance of Max (above), the professor is in dire need of a zol and new brille. The BS does not require formal qualifications of its visiting professors and there are plenty of people’s academics (pass one, pass all) on the flats who can advise on “what strain of weed goes with fish?”
After all, as Quartz notes “organizations such as the Trichome Institute are now offering courses to teach people how to answer that and other important weed-paring questions by better understanding the complexities of the marijuana plant. The the institute has trademarked a term for the skill: “interpening,” for interpreting marijuana terpenes, the organic in the plant’s essential oils.”
It sounds like a meeting of the Sauvignon Blanc Interest Group. Who knows, perhaps a progressive bank like VBS Mutual will sponsor a competition.
