Understand the ‘why’ behind the ‘wow’.

The Sensory Advantage is a training system that explains the full pathway of flavour from molecular interactions to neural processing, cognitive bias, cultural meaning, and conscious experience. It gives teams a scientific, practical, and powerful understanding of how people perceive what they consume.

Chemistry only tells half the story of any food or drink product. It’s the brain and sensory processes that transform the chemistry into the perception of flavour. Without a brain, there is no flavour.
