Designed by Ian Fretheim<\/em><\/strong><\/p>\n

Cafe Imports Director of Sensory Analysis Ian Fretheim spent a long time developing a custom Cupping Score Card for use specifically at Cafe Imports, and tailored to our company’s sourcing needs. After careful evaluation and refinement, based on years of on-again\/off-again brainstorming and months of application, Ian arrived upon a form that we deemed the \u201cAnalytic Cupping Score Card\u201d (Figure 1). This card is designed to both increase accuracy and align our results with our buying practices.<\/p>\n

You may notice some big differences between our card and the cards standardized by the Specialty Coffee Association and Alliance for Coffee Excellence\u2014specifically that we do not evaluate fragrance and aroma or “balance,” and there’s no line for “overall impression.” Ian very thoroughly evaluated the categories and characteristics that inspire\u00a0us<\/em> to purchase a coffee, and instead, he selected the areas where he wanted his team of cup-testers to focus.<\/p>\n
