Body
This describes the sensation of 'weight' and creaminess of the coffee on your tongue. Light bodied coffees are delicate and refreshing; full bodied coffees have a rich voluptuous character which lingers on the palate.

Acidity
If you like a coffee with a crisp, zingy cup and a very clean finish you should look for one with high acidity. It may not sound delicious, but this is how we describe the pleasant sensation of brightness, tartness and the 'tingle' around the sides of the tongue. Sometimes this 'tingle' is confused with bitterness, yet it is an essential element of high quality coffees from East Africa, Central and South America.
