In the Project AGRO it was done the comparison between Lourinhã brandies and other commercial brandies by a consumers’ panel. Simultaneously, the expert’s panel of CVRL/EVN tasted the same brandies. In addition it was performed the physical and chemical analysis of these brandies, including the low molecular weight volatile and phenolic compounds. The results obtained demonstrate that generally the consumer prefers the brandies richest on substances of sweet taste, while the experts assess the brandies according to their richness on wood extractable compounds.
