What is the flavour wheel Series?
Introducing the L’affare Flavour Wheel—a simplified take on the classic Coffee Tasters Flavour Wheel, designed to make tasting notes easy for everyone to understand.
The original flavour wheel was created in the 90s by the Specialty Coffee Association and is often used in the world of specialty coffee to describe the unique characteristics of coffee. We’ve cut the complexity.
Our Flavour Wheel Series will guide you through diverse coffees from various origins, each with unique tasting notes, processing methods, and roasting profiles. Expand your coffee palate and explore new flavours with us.
Check out the latest product in the series – Kacow. Available in whole beans and plunger/filter grind, in selected Woolworths stores and New World and Pak n Save stores in the North Island.
When our roasters envisioned our flavour wheel series blends, they aimed to create a coffee that truly highlights the wheel flavours. To achieve this, they experimented with various coffees and roasting techniques to enhance the coffee’s inherent qualities. As we like to say, the coffee chooses its own flavour path.
Coffee blending development involves tasting and cupping to evaluate individual beans’ flavors, aromas, and balance. Cupping highlights the unique characteristics of each origin, allowing roasters to identify complementary profiles.
Through blending, different beans are combined to create a harmonious flavor, enhancing complexity, body, and consistency for the perfect cup.
