What is the flavor of coffee?

The flavor review of each kind of coffee combines people's intuitive description of the taste of coffee, including its thickness (consistency), acidity, aroma, bitterness, sweetness and aftertaste. The so-called balanced flavor of coffee means that there is no overly prominent flavor in the coffee. Although there are many excellent quality coffees with a balanced flavor, there are exceptions: some coffees are popular because of their special flavors.

The description of coffee flavor

Generally speaking, the industry will evaluate coffee on the basis of its complexity (for example, multi-layered taste) and thickness (for example, full-bodied). However, some people also use the way of association: to comment on the flavor of other foods, just as some coffee has the flavor of red wine, or when some coffee tastes like berries, the industry usually uses these physical objects to describe its flavor.

If this cup of coffee has a fruity flavor, it usually means that it has a natural sweet taste, and some high-quality coffee has the same taste. There are basically three types of fruits: hard-shelled fruits (stone fruit) (peaches, apricots and nectarines), oranges (oranges, lemons, grapefruit) and berries (raspberries, strawberries, blackberries, blackcurrants, cherries). Generally speaking, African beans are mostly fruit-flavored, but they are found to be a secondary flavor in South African beans. Here are some common flavors in some areas:

Kenya: berries Ethiopia Yega Sheffield region: citrus (lemon) Brazil: fruit (cherry) Costa rica: tropical fruit Tanzania: tropical fruit (kiwi), berries (BlackBerry)

Guatemala: citrus (oranges, green apples) Colombia: berries (blackberries, blackcurrants) and shelled fruits (peaches, apricots)
