Coffee Tasting

Is this bitter? Or sour?

If you’re having trouble distinguishing bitterness from sourness, take a sip of coffee, swirl it around your mouth, swallow, then look down and open your mouth slightly.
If saliva starts to pool or drip, that’s caused by acidity – which we perceive as sourness.

Coffee tasting isn't difficult, with these tasting tips  

The Coffee Tasting Framework is accurate, intuitive and grounded in how people actually perceive flavour. It will equip you to identify a coffee’s defining characteristics, appreciate its appeal and identify the coffee drinkers that will enjoy it.
