  Tasting Procedure

In order to guarantee a fully independent and fair judgment, each member of the jury will have to fill in, separately and independently, a special tasting sheet which includes up to 20 different parameters.

Each jury is made up of minimum 8 experts and is chaired by a long experienced judge member of Monde Selection.

In order to guarantee a fully objective judgment, all the scores given by the different jury members are added up and averaged to a final percentage.

The tasting procedure is, on the one hand, based on the sensory analysis such as the general taste of the product, the aroma, appearance, flavour, mouth feel or any other organoleptic criteria. On the other hand, it takes into account other parameters which are important to the customer such as clear information on the ingredients, the packaging, is it easy to prepare, directions for use, etc.

This is not simple blind tasting but an overall assessment of the quality of the product presented including the ingredients used.
