☕ ENEA, a spin-off of the University of Florence, collaborates with the Accademia del Caffè Espresso (La Marzocco) and coffee authorities from eight Central and South American countries to establish a unique coffee ID, ensuring origin and quality. The project analyzes 420 coffee samples from over 30 Arabica varieties using advanced biochemical analysis and bioinformatics approaches, aiming to correlate chemical properties with sensory evaluations like bitterness, acidity, body, and sweetness. The long-term goal is to enhance specialty coffee traceability and expand the partnership to major coffee-producing countries.
