Did you know your coffee might taste different depending on the color of your mug? According to Mandy Naglich's book How to Taste: A Guide to Discovering Flavor and Savoring Life, taste is a multisensory experience.
That means sight, smell, and even the color of your dishware can affect what you perceive on your tongue. Studies show people often associate green with sour flavors - which, in coffee, translates to a more complex and vibrant taste. So sipping your brew from a green mug may actually enhance your experience.
Naglich, a certified taster and journalist, shares fascinating insights into how we can better understand and manipulate our taste perception - from countering bitterness with salt to enhancing chocolatey notes in brownies with a bit of mustard.
Her book is full of fun, practical tips you can apply to everyday life, making your meals and drinks just a little more delicious, starting with something as simple as the mug you choose.
