This on line course takes place over 3 hours on zoom and provides basic intro to applying sensory analysis methods to tasting and evaluating honey. Student will receive a honey tasting kit in the mail one week before class with all exercises, honey samples and class materials via USPS. A welcome email will be sent before each class to everyone who registers.

 

* It is not possible to ship honey to many countries without strict government permission. For this reason, honey kits kits can only be mailed to addresses in the US. Do not register unless you can provide a US shipping address.

 

Students will learn the psychology and physiology of how humans taste, how to identify between the difference taste, flavor and trigeminal sensations. We will wake up our senses with olfactory exercises then use that knowledge to evaluate honey by color, taste, flavor and texture and write detailed tasting notes for honey samples provided. Emphasis will be on using correct descriptors when describing the sensory qualities of each honey using the wheel. Power point presentation included. A Certificate of Completion will be awarded from the AHTS to each attended who completes the workshop.

 

* Online classes and workshops are not eligible for credit or recognized by the Italian National Register of Experts in the Sensory Analysis of Honey toward Honey Sommelier certification.  Only in person courses are recognized.
