Ok, I found a partial answer to my question. The National Honey Board contracted a study (undated) by rTech labs of MN. _http://www.bjcp.org/mead/sensory.pdf_ (http://www.bjcp.org/mead/sensory.pdf) Sensory Attributes of Honey It covers a reasonable group of varietal honey's, presents a graphical illustration. rTech apparently is a food lab with a 'trained' food sensory panel. So, my next question, where does one get such training?
