The Comprehensive Guide to TasteTypes: Embracing Your Unique Palate

Welcome to the journey of discovering your unique TasteType, a concept inspired by the groundbreaking work of Tim Hanni and designed to revolutionize how you explore and enjoy beverages. This guide is your first step towards a personalized drinking experience that respects and reflects your individual taste preferences.


Understanding TasteTypes

At the heart of our TasteType philosophy is the belief that everyone's palate is unique. Drawing on Tim Hanni's research, we recognize four main TasteTypes: Sweet, Sensitive, Hyper-sensitive, and Tolerant. These categories help predict your taste preferences across wines, beers, spirits, and non-alcoholics, focusing on personal preference and sensory perception rather than traditional tasting notes.


Discovering Your TasteType

Your TasteType journey begins with a simple quiz, designed to identify your primary taste preferences and sensitivities. This exploration goes beyond merely identifying what you like—it's about understanding the nuances of your palate. The result is a tailored experience that consistently introduces you to beverages you're sure to enjoy, all thanks to insights derived from your specific TasteType.


The Science of Taste

The perception of taste is highly individualized, influenced by genetics, environment, and personal experiences. The concept of TasteTypes, as developed by Tim Hanni, acknowledges these variations, offering a nuanced approach to catering to diverse palates. This scientific understanding allows for a more satisfying and inclusive tasting experience for everyone.


Applying TasteType Insights

Understanding your TasteType isn't just an exercise in curiosity—it's a gateway to a world of personalized beverage recommendations. Central uses this insight to curate selections that not only match your current preferences but also encourage the discovery of new favorites. It's a dynamic, ongoing journey of taste exploration, made deeply personal through the lens of your TasteType.
