La Spaziale

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.

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.
