Qianjie-brief introduction of coffee flavor wheel

Sour taste: the taste that is most easily sensed by the taste buds can indicate the texture of coffee and the altitude at which it grows. It may be a little fruity (citrus, lemon, berry, etc.), or it may be a pure numbness on the tip of the tongue (sounds like eating unripe sour fruit? ).

Aftertaste and completion stage ~: the taste left in the mouth, sometimes the lingering aftertaste is different from the taste of coffee.

~ bitter ~ ~: mainly the feeling of the back of the mouth, that is, the soft palate, usually used for aftertaste of coffee. For deep-roasted espresso, the bitterness can be extremely obvious.

~ concentration ~ ~: the feeling of the texture of coffee or the thickness of the liquid in the mouth. The light taste means more moisture, like ripe Arabica coffee, while heavy coffee is like Sumatra, Java and most Robusta.

~ neutral ~: mild coffee, very low acidity, no taste change process, coffee in a variety of flavors blend well, such as ordinary Brazilian Arabica coffee.
