Bespoke
Sensory Training Kits - tailored to customer specifications
The Aroma Academy not only develops its own products but also develops bespoke Sensory Aroma products for our customers.
Our in-house capability allows us to develop and tailor Aroma Standards to specific customer specifications and create bespoke Aroma Standards Sets. We work with companies – large and small - who are interested in our sensory expertise in the science of aromas, fragrances and the sense of smell.
We have established an enormous library of Aroma Standards related to many drinks categories (both ‘Positive’ Flavour elements and ‘Faults’) and are continually developing new Standards on customer request.
Bespoke Selection Kits
In addition to our standard Aroma Training Kit sets for different categories, many customers (particularly Drinks Producers, Trainers and Sales & Marketing personnel) request individual ‘Bespoke’ Kits selected from our range of Aroma Standards - see example opposite.)
Many variants of the types of kit above are present in Spirits and Winery laboratories to operate as Standards for Distillers, Wine Makers, Brewers and Sensory Panels
Bespoke Co-Branded Kits
We have produced tailored bespoke co-branded Standards Kits for many customers including some of the most “blue chip” companies in the food and drink industries. These are extensively used in Sales & Marketing activities – particularly as integral parts of product ‘tasting’ events – and are widely used for inhouse staff training and customer training.
