They are the pillars for extraordinary flavor combinations, aromatic beers and inspiring creations: our sense of taste and smell. But what happens when we lose them or when they are only available to us to a limited extent?
FlavorTreat
We take smelling and tasting for granted, but as soon as it vanishes due to Covid 19, a very bad flue or other complications, we realise how it changes our life and how important a well working flavor perception system is. This course will explain have flavor perception works and how you can train it to improve. We will send you samples of different flavour categories in different solutions, so that you see where you stand with your flavor perception. After the course we can supply you will smelling tests so that you can see if you improve with the training. One sample kit to follow up your performance is included in the price.
