Coffee Reviews Aroma, acidity, body, flavor and aftertaste are the standard descriptive categories used by Coffee Review and many professionals when evaluating coffee. Other evaluative systems use as many as ten descriptive categories, but we prefer to use the traditional set of five. Keep in mind that simply because a characteristic, like sweetness, for example, does not appear as a separate category does not mean it is not considered and valued. We consider sweetness in terms of its impact on the acidity category, for example a sweet-toned acidity is valued higher than an overly dry or sourish acidity, flavor, and, very importantly, on aftertaste, where a sweet-toned aftertaste is valued more than a bitterish or astringent aftertaste. We use a rating system of 1 low to 10 high for each of the five categories, reflecting both quantity how intense and quality how pleasing. Overall ratings provide a summary assessment of reviewed coffees and are based on a scale of 50 to 100. Degree or darkness of roast dramatically affects a coffee’s flavor profile. For each roasted coffee, we report its roast level in quantitative descriptive terms based on readings from a specially modified spectrophotometer popularly called an Agtron.

Aroma also provides a subtle introduction to various nuances of acidity, taste and flavor bitter and sweet tones, fruit, flower or herbal notes, and the like. Acidity Acidity is the bright, dry sensation that enlivens the taste of coffee. Without acidity coffee is dull and lifeless. Acidity is not a sour sensation, which is a taste defect, nor should it be excessively drying or astringent, though it sometimes is. At best it is a sweetly tart vibrancy that lifts the coffee and pleasurably stretches its range and dimension. Acidity can be delicate and crisp, lush and rich, powerfully tart but sweet, or backgrounded but vibrant, to cite only a few positive ways to characterize it. The darker a coffee is roasted, the less overt acidity it will display. Body Body and mouthfeel describe sensations of weight and texture. Body can be light and delicate, heavy and resonant, thin and disappointing; in texture it can be silky, plush, syrupy, lean or thin. Flavor and Aftertaste Flavor and aftertaste include everything not suitably described under the categories aroma, acidity and body. An assessment of flavor includes consideration of the balance of basic tastes – sweet, bitter and sour in particular, and specific aroma and flavor notes, which are many and can be described by associations like floral honeysuckle, rose, lilac, etc., nuances of sweetness honey, molasses, brown sugar, aromatic wood cedar, pine, sandalwood and above all fruit from bright citrus to lusher, rounder fruit like apricot or plum, or pungent fruit like black currant or mango. Descriptors of flavor may also be global – balanced, deep, delicate, etc. Aftertaste or finish describes reflects sensations that linger after the coffee has been swallowed or spit out. Generally we tend to reward coffees in which pleasing flavor notes continue to saturate the aftertaste long after the coffee is gone, and the sensations left behind are generally sweet-toned rather than excessively bitter or drying and astringent. Overall Coffee Rating The scale for the overall coffee ratings runs from 50 to 100, and reflects the reviewers’ overall subjective assessment of a coffee’s sensory profile as manifest in the five categories aroma, acidity, body and flavor and aftertaste. Overall ratings are interpreted as follows Rating Interpretation 95-100 Exceptional 90-94 Very Good to Outstanding 85-89 Good 80-84 Fair <80 Poor The higher end of our rating system currently calibrates roughly as follows 97+ = Means “We have not tasted a coffee of this style as splendid as this one for a long, long time” 95-96 = Perfect in structure, flawless, and shockingly distinctive and beautiful 93-94 = Exceptional originality, beauty, individuality and distinction, with no significant negative issues whatsoever 91-92 = An very good to outstanding coffee with excitement and distinction in aroma and flavor – or an exceptional coffee that still perhaps has some issue that some consumers may object to but others will love – a big, slightly imbalanced acidity, for example, or an overly lush fruit 89-90 = A very good coffee, drinkable, with considerable distinction and interest 87-88 = An interesting coffee but either 1 distinctive yet mildly flawed, or 2 solid but not exciting 85/86 = An acceptable, solid coffee, but nothing exceptional — the best high-end supermarket whole bean, for example December 16, 2020 by clearlycoffee by Matt Gibson There are five different elements to the taste of coffee, which are aroma, flavor, acidity, body, and aftertaste. Just like fancy wine tastings, sophisticated coffee drinkers practice coffee tasting, or cupping, to understand the complex flavors of high-quality coffees beyond the surface level. Coffee tasting is not something that should be practiced on generic coffees like folgers, or maxwell house, but if you like trying fancy, high end coffee beans, and really enjoy brewing exceptional joe, learning about coffee tasting is the next step towards truly enjoying coffee and understanding how to analyze the way a good coffee can affect your palette. Some of the five elements are very easy to understand, even for novices. Some are more refined, and require a bit more education to grasp. If you are ready to dive into coffee tasting, we have dissected the five elements of coffee tasting for you here, and clearly explained how to analyze coffee like the pros. After reading this article, you should be much better prepared for your first coffee cupping. Here are the five elements of tasting coffee, explained clearly for beginners. Aroma The aroma of coffee speaks to your sense of smell, it is how the coffee is received by your nose. It is the scent, or fragrance of the coffee beans after they have been ground and brewed. Before grinding, you should smell the beans as well, as it will give you an idea of how the coffee might smell after it is brewed. Once you have brewed a cup of coffee, give it a sniff and marinate on the complexities of the smell. Aroma and flavor are intricately linked, and the way a coffee smells is a key element of the way a coffee tastes. Since you normally get a good whiff of the aroma just before taking a sip, think of aroma as the preview to flavor. Some common coffee aromas are nutty, fruity, floral, earthy, spicy, herbal, and citrusy. These are just a few of the many aromatic possibilities of a good cup of coffee. When you are practicing coffee tasting, take note of the aroma before anything else. Smell your brew before tasting it and take a moment to see how many different elements of aroma you can notice in the scent. Then take a sip. Flavor Once you have taken a sip of coffee, the flavor of the brew immediately resonates on your palette. Flavor is the most obvious element of coffee tasting, but many coffee drinkers never take the time to notice the diversity of flavors that can be present in a single brew. Common flavor notes include citrusy, berry, floral, buttery, chocolatey, nutty, smokey, sour, sweet, spicy, caramely, vanilla, cinnamon, bitter, herbal, and earthy notes. Sometimes separating the flavor and aroma of the coffee is difficult, as they are very closely tied, but with practice, you can notice subtle differences between the smell and taste of a cup of joe. To practice detecting the many flavors present in a good coffee, follow these suggestions 1 Don’t take a large drink at first, or swish the liquid around in your mouth. Instead, take a small sip with your mouth slightly open, allowing some air to enter your mouth with the sip. 2 Then, gently let the liquid swirl upon your tongue. 3 Take note of the initial flavors that you notice within the brew. Some should be obvious, while others may be more subtle, but all combine to create a complex flavor. Acidity All coffee has acidity. Several different types of acid, such as citric acid, can be present in coffee, but when cupping, we aren’t really referencing the amount of acidity in the brew, but the mouth feel that the coffee leaves after a sip. This includes the brightness, dryness, sourness, sweetness, and oily elements of a coffee. What kind of a sensation does the coffee leave in your mouth after tasting? Is it bright and tart? Dry and sweet? Or is it oily and bitter? Acidity is a bit more complex and requires practice to fully comprehend all of its complexities. However, acidity is essential to a good coffee. The fact of the matter is, without acidity, coffee can be rather boring and lacking in flavor, in short, not a very enjoyable experience. Coffees with more acidic content are bright and complex, offering sour or sweet notes that bring a fullness to the overall flavor. Coffees with low acidity allow other characteristics to come through in the flavor, such as floral, earthy, and smokey notes. Light roasts generally have more acidity and dark roasts have less acidity. Body Body is basically the texture of different coffees, and can also be described as the way it feels in your mouth. There are full-bodied coffees, light-bodied, and no-bodied coffees. Technically, there are not really any coffees with no body, but flatter, thinner brews are described as no-bodied due to their lack of body or mouthfeel. Common terms used to describe the body of a coffee include full, light, thick, viscous, watery, silky, oily, syrupy, and more. Aftertaste The aftertaste, or finish of a coffee is the flavor that is only noticeable after you have swallowed and allowed the brew to mature or linger for a few moments. Full bodied coffees will have a more pronounced aftertaste than light roast coffee. Darker roasts also tend to have stronger aftertastes than lighter ones. Common terms used to describe aftertaste include smoky, woody, spicy, and earthy. How does the coffee resonate on your palette several seconds after you finish a sip? The answer to this question describes the aftertaste. Practice Analyzing Coffee For Deeper Enjoyment Cupping is not a practice that one becomes good at overnight. To begin to notice the complexities of the five elements of coffee, one must practice coffee tasting regularly and fine tune the palate. Whenever you purchase a nice newcoffee, try tasting and analyzing the five elements of it before drinking it regularly. Understanding the full nature of a coffee’s flavor will bring about more enjoyment and more fulfillment from your daily cup. After you have practiced cupping and developed a more refined palate for coffee tasting, you will be able to notice more about the flavor of coffee without thinking about it. Cupping is not just for fancy coffee snobs, but for anyone who wants to enjoy their coffee on a deeper level. Before you can decide whether or not you like a certain coffee, you should try to discern the various elements of its taste. You might find that you enjoy it more than you initially thought once you understand its complexity. A good cup of coffee will have a long list of flavors that most drinkers never even notice. Those that take the time to understand the five elements of coffee tasting, will be rewarded for their efforts with a more fulfilling relationship with their favorite brews.
