The sensory analysis of a coffee (or any other product) is an exercise that does not have to be innate, it can be trained and developed with a series of guidelines and working on it little by little, so no previous experience is necessary.
In this coffee tasting workshop we are going to work on our senses and how we perceive the different expressions that a coffee can offer us. To do this we will divide the course into 3 different exercises.
1. Olfactory phase: we will learn to distinguish the nuances of more than 36 aromas with our Le Nez Du Café smell box.
2. Basic tastes and acidity: on this table we will identify the 5 basic tastes (sour, sweet, salty, bitter, umami) and the different types of acidity that can be found in a coffee (citric, lactic, malic, acetic, etc...).
3. Brazilian cupping: we will see the different guidelines that must be followed to carry out and score a professional cupping and we will taste different origins and varietals of coffee.
The course is held in Madrid, in our Academy (Link in Maps). We give great importance to quality and personalised attention in the training courses, so the maximum number of participants is 4 people.
