Sensory reference materials for detecting defects and attributes in green and roasted coffee, aligned to the World Coffee Research (WCR) Sensory Lexicon 2.0 and the Speciality Coffee Association (SCA) Coffee Taster’s Flavour Wheel.

What are Coffee Flavour Standards?

FlavorActiV’s GMP-certified Coffee Flavour Standards are pharmaceutical-grade sensory reference materials used by coffee roasters, Q Graders, green coffee buyers, and quality control panels to identify specific flavour attributes and taints in coffee, from cupping green and roasted samples through to auditing finished brews. The range covers 35 individual coffee flavour standards, 24 of which are formally included in the World Coffee Research Sensory Lexicon 2.0 and mapped to the SCA/WCR Coffee Taster’s Flavour Wheel.
