In great development of the Brazilian economy is largely due to coffee, and the country is one of the main producers of the fruit. The first coffee plant was brought from the French Guianas and its cultivation started in Belém. The spread of the fruit to the whole national territory was fast. The valorization of the fruit is made through its quality that is defined with a set of chemical, physical and sensory properties. The present study aimed to analyze the quality of the coffee fruit through the sensory and physical-chemical aspects of 3 coffee samples, namely Acaia 17, Barra 04 and Icatu yellow.
