TRAINING

We offer a variety of taster training courses. From as little as one day, up to two weeks, depending on the level of skill you’re looking to achieve. We’ll teach you to assess the quality of your product for release to the market, taste ingredients and in-process samples, describe the flavour of your product in quantitative terms, evaluate shelf-life and more. Each training day involves evaluation of around 50 samples, with your skills being tested and scored on each and every sample. We are also able to offer remote online training, with per-person training packs so that assessors can participate safely from home during Covid-19.

Using blind- coded flavours added to your product or to water, we’ll challenge your tasters’ skills in the areas of flavour identification and flavour intensity evaluation, providing a score for their current level of competence and giving you the information you need to make targeted improvements.
