According to the WCR Coffee Sensory Lexicon, what is a common mouthfeel sensation?

In the context of the WCR Coffee Sensory Lexicon, thickness is recognized as a common mouthfeel sensation experienced when tasting coffee. Mouthfeel refers to the physical sensations in the mouth created by the coffee, including texture, body, and viscosity. Thickness, specifically, is often used to describe a coffee that feels rich and full in the mouth, contributing to a more robust tasting experience.

Other sensations like spiciness, sweetness, and friedness are more associated with flavor and aroma rather than the tactile qualities that define mouthfeel. For instance, spiciness relates to flavor characteristics that can be detected but do not describe how the coffee feels in the mouth. Sweetness, while important in flavor profiles, does not convey the sensation of texture or body. Friedness might refer to a particular flavor profile but is not recognized as a mouthfeel sensation. Thus, thickness stands out as the most appropriate descriptor in this context.
