What is a Flavor Profile Analysis? |
|
Definition
During a Flavor Profile Analysis, a panel of trained tasters attempt to detect contaminants at various dilutions and define the nature of the taste (and any odor) either in their own words or through the use of standard descriptions. In most cases, the all too standard definition of "tastes like chicken" has been eliminated from the list of standard descriptions. |
