Against this background, the ASEAN Coffee Institute (ACI) is determined to speak coffee in the Asian language.

The ACI has spent 3 years studying the market and coffee scene, culminating in a reimagined coffee protocol that is comprehensive yet convenient. Called ACF Coffee Appreciation Protocol (ACAP), it aims not to evaluate but to appreciate the works of nature and the works of skilled craftsmen along the coffee value chain, covering a spectrum of applications – professional appreciation, consumer survey, green coffee appreciation, roasting, brewing, judging etc. Supporting this development are a new coffee sensory certification, the ASEAN Coffee Flavour Sphere, Scentible sensory training kit and Cpin coffee cupping app.

Central to our 3-years’ study is our sensory course. ACI works to break down traditional boundaries regarding the different compartments of coffee. The syllabus of our sensory course straddles green coffee, brewing and roasting, all in one course. All in all, ACI aims to provide education in a paced and systematic manner. We believe sensory is an attainable skill and need not be restricted to a select group of people. At the end of the course, the graduate would have a good knowledge of coffee history, industry and science, and be able to execute, explain and expound.

ACI believes that our holistic and integrated approach offers one meaningful solution to today’s coffee challenges. We will continue to walk the ground with fellow craftsmen to support and uplift the ASEAN coffee community and beyond.
