Evaluation process
Monde Selection aims to deliver the most impartial and independent evaluation.
The evaluation procedure takes into account not only sensory qualities such as taste, aroma, texture, flavour, sensation in the mouth or any other relevant organoleptic criteria, but also other important parameters for the consumer such as ingredients used, clarity of information about the composition of the product, packaging, user-friendliness for preparations, instruction sheets, etc.
This methodology guarantees a fair and global analysis for the consumer.
