flavor panels
Flavor panels are groups of trained or experienced tasters who evaluate and compare the taste, aroma, and overall sensory qualities of food or beverages. Their purpose is to identify specific flavor characteristics, assess quality, and ensure consistency. Panelists typically use standardized methods and scoring systems to provide objective, repeatable feedback. This technique helps manufacturers refine products, develop new flavors, and maintain high standards by capturing detailed sensory impressions from multiple evaluators working together in a controlled setting.
