MossFest 2026 Workshop: Sensory Exploration with Cloud Catcher Asia

Discover how you taste coffee through a hands-on workshop in three parts. Start by understanding the five basic tastes of the human palate: sweet, sour, salty, bitter and umami. Then test your nose with an aroma assessment exercise using aroma samples. Finally, bring it all together by tasting and evaluating coffees using what you've just learned.

What You’ll Learn:

• Part 1: Five Basic Tastes Evaluation
  Evaluate the five basic tastes through an exercise using water solutions that represent each taste characteristic. By the end of this exercise, you will be able to identify and differentiate between the five basic tastes.
  
• Part 2: Aroma Assessment Exercise
  Evaluate a range of aromas and learn to distinguish between different scents, building the vocabulary needed to identify the key aromas used to describe coffee.
  
• Part 3: Application of Sensory Skills
  Taste and describe coffee samples, applying the knowledge gained from the two preceding exercises.
