Definition

Body

The perceived thickness, creaminess or viscosity of brewed coffee. A full bodied coffee is one with a rich, almost heavy, mouthfeel. The perception of body can be created by sediment, produced by certain brewing methods, and, a mark of quality, by the amount of lipids (fats, oils and waxes) in the coffee.

Bourbon
