ICOSA AVENSI Tasting Cups — Key Differences
AVENSI Coffee Enhancing Glassware Cups VIDA – The All-Around Cup
-
Shape & purpose: Tulip-inspired profile that amplifies aroma while balancing sweetness, acidity, and body. Designed to provide a well-rounded sensory experience. Specialty Coffee Blog - Pull & Pour
-
Best use: General-purpose coffee tasting; great choice for medium roast pour-overs or coffees with complex but balanced flavor profiles.
-
Example: Use VIDA when brewing a balanced Ethiopian or Colombian pour-over where you want a complete aromatic and flavor profile without emphasizing any single attribute.
AVENSI Coffee Enhancing Glassware Cups SENTI – The Aroma & Body Enhancer
-
Shape & purpose: Wider bowl increases surface area and directs coffee toward the center of the tongue to intensify aroma and body. ICOSA Brewhouse
-
Best use: Medium to dark roasts where deeper aromas, earthiness, and richness are key.
-
Example: Ideal for medium-dark roast filter brews or espresso drips where you want to maximize aroma and weight on the palate.
AVENSI Coffee Enhancing Glassware Cups ALTO – The Brightness & Acidity Focused Cup
-
Shape & purpose: Hourglass shape with a wide rim spreads coffee across the top and sides of the tongue to highlight acidity and brightness. ICOSA Brewhouse
-
Best use: Lighter roasts with fruity, floral, or citrusy notes.
-
Example: Perfect for light Kenyan or Ethiopian coffees where you want to emphasize bright acidity and delicate aromatics.
Practical Application Summary
| Cup | Sensory Focus | Roast Style | When to Use |
|---|---|---|---|
| VIDA | Balanced aroma/flavor | Light–Dark | Everyday brewing, versatile tasting |
| SENTI | Enhanced body & aroma | Medium–Dark | Rich, aromatic coffees |
| ALTO | Bright acidity & fruitiness | Light roasts | Highlighting fruity, lively cups |
If you’re exploring specialty coffees and want cups that actively shape how flavors and aromas are delivered (especially when swirling to aerate), switching between these three lets you accentuate different sensory attributes in the same coffee.
