Front Street-Coffee Flavor understanding

"Flavor"-refers to a variety of different flavors and is the overall perception of the quality of coffee, including everything from aroma to taste.

"Flavor description"-is how we express the taste we feel in words, which helps us to describe the unique characteristics of each kind of coffee.

A crucial distinction

Flavor description is often very subjective, and the taste description given by a person is their explanation of the taste they feel.

However, this often leads to misunderstandings. Especially when there is a difference between the flavor description of trained professionals and the taste buds of customers, no matter how hard both sides try, it is a protracted war for both sides. When customers, no matter how hard they try, can't feel the taste described by the barista at all, it makes it more difficult for us to prove the unique value of coffee.

Flavor description plays an important role.

Although flavor descriptions are difficult to understand, they do help customers.

For customers, discussing the origin and treatment methods may be more acceptable but boring than a simple flavor description. After all, there are many factors that affect the taste of coffee: climate, origin, coffee variety, treatment, roasting degree, blending method and formula. Even the water used for brewing can affect the taste of the final coffee.

Therefore, in the brief interaction between baristas and customers, the sensory experience is often difficult to be fully explained. So flavor description may not be perfect, but it is one of our best tools.

The more familiar consumers are with fine coffee, the more helpful it will be to them. The more coffee people drink, the more experience they have and the larger their vocabulary. The more they know what kind of coffee they want to drink, the more they will pay attention to the nuances between different coffees and share the perfect flavor description with other equally experienced coffee people.
