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
