Embark on a sensory journey that blends the unique flavors of Brazilian coffees with carefully designed olfactory and gustatory exercises. This workshop aims to train the senses, enhancing coffee appreciation through memory, perception, and sensory exploration.
Together, we will analyze the sensory experience of coffee through interactive taste and aroma exercises. Participants will be encouraged to feel, explore, and create their own interpretations, transforming a simple tasting into a deep, mindful connection with coffee and the world around them.
We will feature Brazilian coffees with distinct sensory profiles, including Arabica, Conilon, and Amazonian Robusta, offering a unique opportunity to explore flavors from different regions. In harmony with the tasting, we will engage in an olfactory exercise to identify aromas naturally found in these coffees. Using the Coffee Taster’s Flavor Wheel, we will navigate flavor attributes and conduct a comparative tasting of the coffees brewed.
Additionally, we will briefly discuss the fundamentals of aroma, taste, and flavor. This workshop is designed for anyone eager to expand their sensory repertoire and develop new perceptions, whether they are coffee professionals or enthusiasts.
