- An illustrated book describes the aromatic family of each aroma, its fragrant characteristics and its manifestation in coffees of various origins. It tells the story of the art of the planter and the roaster, and the know-how of preparing a good coffee.

The Nose of Café Révélation allows you to :

• 1. Train and enrich your olfactory memory...  
  The sense of smell is the most important of the senses 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 recognizing a smell ?
  Nothing could be more normal ! In the same way that we have learned to read, write, count, feel requires learning.
  
  
• 2. … to better analyze the coffees you taste
  But, " what's the point ?" First of all, recognising the aromas enriches the vocabulary of tasting. However, putting a word on your impressions increases the pleasure of tasting and allows you to exchange with others. Then, the aromas of the 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 that is aimed at both professionals and amateurs wishing to deepen their knowledge.

The Coffee Nose is required to obtain the Q grader, a diploma issued by the Coffee Quality Institute and recognized as the world reference for the evaluation of the quality of specialty coffees, as well as for the certifications of the SCA (the Coffee Skills Program).

 " The Nez du Café is both the perfect tool for novices new to specialty coffee and a must-have for coffee professionals. This aromatic palette is very useful for me to prepare for a competition and even certain exams, including the Q Grader. I use it systematically during my barista training and at certain trade shows: it accompanies me on all my trips! »
