Descriptive sensory analyses are distinguished from other sensory testing methods in that they seek to profile a product on all of its perceived sensory characteristics. In this paper, the process of implementing a descriptive sensory programme will be reviewed, with some discussion of new approaches and applications. Variations of descriptive sensory analysis will also be considered, including The Flavour Profile Method(TM), Texture Profile Method(TM), Quantitative Descriptive Analysis(TM), Quantitative Flavour Profiling, Spectrum(TM) method and Free-Choice Profiling. Advantages and disadvantages of these methods will be discussed in a comparative way and the future of descriptive sensory analysis is also considered. In addition, some current assumptions of sensory panel training are questioned and potential new applications of descriptive techniques are discussed. (C) 2001 Elsevier Science Ltd.
