The Nose of Coffee Revelation allows you to:
1. Train and enrich your olfactory memory ...Â
Smell is the most important sense in the perception of a coffee. However, it is often difficult to identify an aroma in your cup of coffee. Have you ever experienced the feeling of knowing without actually recognizing a smell?
Nothing more normal! In the same way that we learned to read, write, and count, smelling requires learning.
2. …to better analyze the coffees you taste
But, “what’s the point?†First of all, recognizing aromas enriches the tasting vocabulary. Putting your impressions into words increases the pleasure of tasting and allows you to communicate with others. Then, the aromas of coffee inform us about its varietal and geographical origin and the different stages of its production, from cultivation methods to preparation techniques and roasting. The Nose of Coffee therefore allows you not only to perfect your olfactory sense but also to understand the coffee-making process at the origin of the aromas. A book aimed at both professionals and amateurs wishing to deepen their knowledge. The Nose of Coffee is required to obtain the Q grader, a diploma awarded by the  Coffee Quality Institute
