What does coffee taste like?

Mouthfeel is a flavor we experience through touch

Hands are the most sensitive part of the body

Next are the lips and tongue

Our mouths are filled with nerve endings

Density, viscosity, coldness, heat, etc. of food and drinks

Factors will react

The unique tactile sensation of coffee is often the key factor in determining

An important factor in its quality

That is, the mellowness and astringency of coffee

Sugar is an important part of the overall balance of flavor. - The Flavor Bible [happy] [happy]

The sugar in the coffee melts in the liquid to create sweetness. The sweetness supports other flavors in the coffee and plays a role in blending and rounding out the taste.
