taste profile

Sensory flavor signature

A taste profile is the combination of flavor characteristics that define a food, beverage, or ingredient.

Wine has a taste profile of acidity, sweetness, tannins, and fruit notes.

Coffee roasters describe taste profiles with terms like bright, earthy, or chocolatey.

The phrase also applies to individuals: My taste profile leans toward savory over sweet.
