CHAPTER 5 WINE SERVICE


INTRODUCTION

We all know that once we enter restaurants, and are ordering wines, we will end up paying for the
same wines at 100 to 200 percent higher than its usual retail prices. This is an absolute given and an
accepted fact. It is therefore imperative that we expect an impeccable service for the enjoyment of these
wines.
Unlike restaurant foods that are aptly prepared and created by chefs, wines come from the wineries
“as is”, so there is no value add-on from the establishment side other than the wine services.
Wine service in this case pertains to everything from the offer of a wine list, the suggestion of wines
for chosen entrees, the use of proper wine stemware glasses, to decanting if necessary, and the proper
wine servicing procedures. Of course, all of these are premised on the assumption that these
establishments have good storage condition that keeps their wines at its optimum level.

LESSON 1 WINES

https://www.winemag.com/2013/04/12/dissecting-napa-valley-cabernet-sauvignon/

Lesson 1.1 Introduction

Of all the types of alcoholic beverages, wine is he most complex and sophisticated alcoholic
beverage. Complex in the sense that no wine produced from the same variety of grapes and from different
location and vintage are alike in character. Unlike with spirits and beers, these alcoholic beverages are
constant in terms of character all throughout its production. Wine is sophisticated in the sense that you
need knowledge and understanding of wine in order to appreciate. It is the only alcoholic beverages that
requires service procedure if it is served in a formal occasion or dinner. As to the common people, they
believe that as wine stays or aged longer, it becomes better in taste or quality. This is a misconception, not
all wines can be aged or stay longer and it becomes better in taste and quality. Wines with higher tannins
are those that can stay longer and those wines with good quality are those wines that are meant for aging
to further improve its taste. Most white wine are less in tannins so it means they are not for aging and they
don’t stay longer. In the Philippines, since we don’t produce grape wine, knowledge about wine is limited
to the general public. But for those in those in the higher class of the society that can afford to buy expensive
bottles of wine and are exposed to it knows and understand it. They are able to appreciate the wine in terms
of its character and taste. The mass market in the Philippines could not really appreciate the tannins of the
wine that makes it taste a bit astringent and bitter. What they can appreciate is if the wine is sweet and
fruity, less in tannin and less balsamic. That is why those brands of wine that produces and sells cheaper
sweet and fruit flavored wines is able to capture the taste of Filipino mass market. As you can see, today
in the Philippine wine market, more wine producers from the new world are now producing and selling sweet
and cheaper wines to the Philippines.

In the Philippines, there are no wine grapes productions but we do have produced from our local
ingredients. These are the local wines we have:
1. Duhat wine or the Philippine Black Plum wine – the wine is made from for fermented juice of duhat
or Philippine black plum. Compared with white from grapes the duhat wine is comparable to it.
Duhat contains the same component needed to produce good quality wine that is present in the
grapes. These are the tannins, acids, and pigments. Tannins are needed to make the wine stay
longer and age, acids control the oxidation of the pigment that provide the red color of the wine.
The difference between duhat and grape is that in every fruit of grape more juice can be extracted
while small amount of juice from duhat and its difficult to extract the juice from the duhat fruit
because of the bigger seed.

2. Tuba or Palm wine – tuba or palm wine is a sweet wine made from fermented juice of a palm tree.
There are several types of palm tree where tuba can be produced: coconut, nipa or sasa and kaong
or sugar palm. When tuba is oxidated it becomes vinegar. There is an available bottled tuba or
palm wine in the local market it is called “Bahalina” a slightly oxidated tuba or palm wine. How is
tuba produced? In the provinces where tuba is a common afternoon alcoholic beverage before, the
mangtutuba or mananggete in Visayan term will cut the sprout of the buko or the palm tree so that
it will produce a sap which is usually the juice of the buko or the palm fruit. Then the container will
place in the cut sprout of the palm fruit to collect the sprout. The sap or the tuba is collected every
twelve hours to minimize oxidation. The palm wine is usually sweet with minimum alcohol content.
It the wild yeast that is present in palm trees or in the air that facilitate the fermentation of tuba. If
tuba or palm wine is turned into Lambanog, a locally produced distilled spirits which is also
considered as the local version of vodka. Cultured yeast is added to facilitate the fermentation to
produce more alcohol in tuba or palm wine.

3. Basi or Sugarcane wine – it is a wine made from fermented sugarcane juice .Basi is generally
produced in Ilocos. Compared with the wines from grapes it doesn’t have the charavteristics of a
grape wine. Of course, sugarcane lacks the components needed to produce a quality wine. When
Basi is oxidated it becomes vinegar the “sukang Iloco” the brown vinegar.

4. Tapuy or Rice wine – it is equivalent to the popular Japanese rice wine or sake. It originated in the
Province and even today it is still part of the culture and traditions of natives of the said province.
They use it in their wedding ceremony, religious rituals, before and after harvesting rituals and of
course for celebration. If in the lowland, there is the local tuba and lambanog in the Mt. Province
they have their tapuy.

5. Other tropical fruit wines:


• Strawberry wine
• Mango wine – both green and yellow mango wine
• Guava wine
• Bignay wine

Lesson 1.2 Definition

This is an alcoholic beverage that is produced from a partial and/or complete fermentation of the
juice of fresh ripe grapes. Wine is a naturally fermented juice of grapes. But if a wine is produced or
fermented from other source or fruits, the name of the source/fruit must be specified.
1. Wine – alcoholic beverage made by fermenting fruit juices particularly grape juice.
2. Wine terms:
• Vin (van) – French
• Vino – Italian, Spanish and Portuguese
• Wein (ve) – German

Lesson 1.3 History

1. Grapes have been grown since time immemorial, in 1870 in Cezanne, France. The fossilized
remains of a grape precursor of a grape vine thought to be 50 million years old were found in.
2. Evidence found in Middle East, indicates that the discovery of wine appears to be a happy accident.
Before grapes were harvested using jugs. Apparently some grapes left in jugs exude some grape
juice, which then begun to ferment under the heat of the sun.
3. Later the Greeks developed the way of cultivating the vine and introduced the grape vines to Italy.
The Romans in turn exported the concept to the countries under their rule, to France about
500BCE, along the Mediterranean trade route westward to Spain and Portugal, then north to
Germany, Switzerland, and along the Danube. Through countless empires and invasions,
grapevines were planted and prospered around the world.
4. With the spread of Christianity, religious orders were instrumental in the development of tools and
techniques for growing grapes and making wines. As a proof Champagne or sparkling was
discovered in a monastery in Champagne, France by the person named Dom Perignon.

Lesson 1.4 Categories of Wines (Rojo, Lorenzo G. (2012). Bar and Beverage Service with Mixology,
2ndEdition.Philippines: Mindshapers Co., Inc.)

Still wine/table wine – a wine without carbon dioxide.

Types:
1. Unfortified still wine – wine without added alcohol, with 4-14% alcohol volume
 Red wine
 Rose wine
 White wine
 Flavored wine
2. Fortified still wine – wine with added alcohol, with 15-30% alcohol volume
 Dry fortified
 Sweet fortified
 Aromatic wine/vermouth

Sparkling wine – wine that contains carbon dioxide


 Sparkling:
France – vin(wine) mosseaux (sparkling): Champagne
Italy – vino (wine) spumanti (sparkling)
Spain and Portugal – vino espumante/Cava
Germany – schaumwein: sparkling wine

Champagne - a world famous sparkling wine produced in the Champagne region in France. It is
sparkling wine produced with second fermentation done in a bottle. “All Champagnes are sparkling
wine but not all sparkling wines are Champagne. What does it mean? Champagnes are exclusively
produced in the region of Champagne, outside the Champagne the wine is just termed sparkling wine.
If it is produced within France but outside. Champagne region, the wine is termed vin mosseux or
French sparkling wine. These are two types of Champagne:
• Non-vintage Champagne – a type of champagne aged at least 2 to years and no vintage date
indicated in the label.
• Vintage Champagne – a type of champagne aged at least 5 years or more and a vintage date
is indicated in the label.

Methods of Producing Sparkling


1. Champagne Method (Methode Championois) – also known as traditional method. In this method
champagne or sparkling wine is produced using the second fermentation in the bottle. If a sparkling
produced outside Champagne region uses this method, in the label of the wine it can indicate the
method used the Champagne method or Methode Champinois.
2. Charmator or the Bulk Process Method – in this method sparkling wine is produced using second
fermentation in a large stainless steel own as charmat.

CLASSIFICATIONS OF WINES:

1. STILL OR NATURAL WINES are sometimes referred to as table wines. They are called natural or
still wines because they are produced out of natural fermentation. Grapes are squeezed and
fermented naturally without anything added to it.

They are classified by their color as follows:


• Red wine – Cabernet, Merlot, Pinot Noir, Barbera
• White wine – Chardonnay, Chablis, Dry Sauvignon Blanc
• Rose wine – Mateus rose, Rose d’ Anjou, Tavel

2. AROMATIC WINES are made in the same way as the natural wines but during fermentation,
aromatics are added. Examples: Vermouth, Dubbonet.

These types of wines have no production area and no vintage. They are usually served as aperitif
(before dinner drink). They are believed to have medical value. The alcohol content ranges between
18% to 20%.

Aromatic wines maybe served in the following manner:


• On the rocks (with ice in a rock glass)
• Neat – in a rock glass
• Mixed – in a highball glass/ cocktail glass

3. FORTIFID WINES are sparked with brandy or neutral spirits, making them last longer since brandy
contains stabilizing preservatives. Because of their long shelf life, these wines are preferred for
travel in long sea journeys during the olden times.

The method of making fortified wine is solera system, which means adding an old wine to a young
wine.

Fortified wines are usually served as an aperitif or as a dessert wine. Some are used to enhance
the flavor of food when used in cooking.

Service of fortified wines may be done as follows:


• On the rocks (in a rock glass)
• Neat (using a rock glass)
• Mixed (in a highball glass/cocktail glass)

4. SPARKLING WINES has a quality that is perfected by a second fermentation in the bottle.

When a grape juice is fermented, its sugar is converted to alcohol and the carbonic gas is allowed
to escape. When the gas is released, it rushes out of the wine to for bubbles. This is the basic
principle upon which all natural sparkling wines are made.
Sparkling wines are made through the so called Champenoise method wherein a second
fermentation in a bottle is produced.

Carbonation champagne and other sparkling wines shall be served similar to white wines with a
few exceptions in the procedures for uncorking and pouring.

(Roldan, Amelia S., et al (2013). Food Service and Bartending, 2nd edition. Philippines: AR Skills
Development and Management Services, Inc.)

Lesson 1.5 Factors Affecting the Quality of Wine

1. The types of grapes used – the best type of grapes that produces excellent quality wines is the vitis
vinifera.
2. The types of soil/location – in the old world grapes are usually planted in chalky, sandy and lime
soil and in slopes. The soil forced the roots of the grapes to go deeper for water where in at the
bottom mineral deposits are present and in turn absorbed by the roots of the grapes. Those mineral
are stored in fruits of the grapes that in turn create a unique characteristics of wine if the grapes
will be turned into wine. Also grapes are planted in slopes so that all the fruits if possible should be
struck by the rays of the sun for uniform ripening and sugar content in the fruits. These are some
of the components of what they call “terroir” the combination of soil, location and climate. The old
world of wine making value the significance of the terroir in producing quality wines. In the new
world particularly in the US, some vineyards are in the plains and the soils are not necessarily
chalky, sandy or lime soil. It is for the reason that wine makers in the new world don’t totally rely on
the terroir but on the fruits and the ability of the wine maker to create a particularly type of wine.
3. The climate – vitis vinifera are best grown in places with temperature climate, warm sunny days
and cool nights. In the old world or in European wines they have what they call good or bad vintage.
Vintage means the harvest year. Good or excellent vintage means the grapes harvested is of good
or excellent quality that in turn van be produced into good or excellent wines, bad vintage/poor
vintage if the grapes harvested are of bad or poor quality. The major factor that affects the vintage
is the climate, if the temperature becomes too hot it produ- ces more sugar in the grapes that affects
the fermentation process. If temperature is too low this makes less sugar in the grapes that it needs
to add sugar to the juice of the grapes to facilitate fermentation. Grapes in bad vintage are those
produced and placed in the lower classification of wines. In the new world particularly in the state
of California, it has a consistent temperature climate that in return produces consistent good or
excellent vintages. If the wine from California contain in its label a vintage it is an indication that the
wine is of high quality or excellent vintage. In the Philippines climate is the reason why vitis vinifera
could survive because Philippines is a tropical country.
4. The skill/knowledge of the wine maker – the winemaker’s knowledge and skills are very important
factor in creating a particular type of wine. His knowledge and skills in the time and harvesting of
grapes, they yield of juices/must needed to be subjected to fermentation. His/her knowledge and
skills in facilitating the fermentation and the proper blending of the varieties of grapes to produce a
particular type of wine. And other skills and knowledge required from him/her in producing wine.

Lesson 1.6 Manufacturing Still Wines

Steps:
1. Harvesting – grapes are picked from the vines either manually or by machine.
2. Crushing – grapes are pressed to produce a must.
3. Fermenting – the yeast breakdown sugar into alcohol and carbon dioxide.
• Red and rose wine – skins are soaked in the must to produce color to the wine.
• Cuvaison/vatting – the skin of the grapes is pressed to extract tannins, acids and pigments.
Long vatting are done for those wines to be aged for long period to develop its quality.
4. Racking/settling – fermented musts are placed in casks or barrels to let the lees settled down at
the bottom of the cask.
5. Maturing/aging – fermented must/wine is placed in a barrel or tank to develop and mellow its taste.
• Maturing – wine are placed in stainless steel tank, white and rose wine.
• Aging – wine are placed in barrels, red wines. Better red wine are aged 2-3 years in barrels.
6. Filtering/fining/clarifying – removing sediments in wine before bottling
• Albumen is added to the wine
• Gelatin or bentonite
• Micro filtration
7. Bottling – wine are placed in a bottle and stoppered with cork. Wine stoppered with cork must be
stored at their side.

Lesson 1.7 Wine Names

1. Varietal names – the name of the variety of the grapes that predominates is the one used in the
name of the wine. In order to use the variety of the grape used in making the wine, the variety that
will be used as the name of the wine must be 80% of the total variety used in the said wine.
2. Generic names – name of the place where wine came from or produced, in the region, district or a
village in wine producing country in Europe.
3. Brand names – also called proprietary name, is one that belongs exclusively to a vineyard or
shipper who produces and or bottles the wine and takes total responsibility for its quality.

Lesson 1.8 Wine Label: EU Regulation

1. Within the European Union, regulations mandate that this information be provided on the label:
• The type of wine (e.g. vin de pays, table wine or AOC)
• The name and address of the wine producer, bottler, or saleaman
• The country of origin
• The wine’s volume (e.g. 750ml)
• The percent alcohol by volume (if the ABV exceeds 1.2%), which can deviate at the most 0.4%
from the real grade

2. Additional information may be included at the discretion of the wine procedure. This may include:
• More specific information in the sweetness of wine (e.g. brut or demi-sec)
• The vintage year
• The grape variety
• The Lage or detailed name of the vineyard
• The wine region e.g. Rheinhessen
• Names of people involved in the wine’s distribution (e.g. “Selected by…”/”Sélectionné par…”
or “Imported by…”/Importé par…”
• Medals or other prizes awarded to the wine
• Recommendation for use (e.g. “Serve chilled”)

Lesson 1.9 Factors to Consider in Selecting Quality Wines

1. The wine classification - knowing and understanding the different classification or appellation of the
wine will help you determine the quality of the wine you are going to purchase.
2. The vintage of the wine - for European wine or wine from the old world the knowing the vintage of
the wine will help you give an idea of the quality of the wine. In order determine the either the
vintage is excellent or bad you must able to check it from a vintage calendar or guide. There are
vintage guides in hard copy available in the market or from the internet. The vintage guide will not
only help you to determine the quality of the wine but also it presents condition in terms of
drinkability and its aging time requirement. For the wines from the new world particularly American
wines the most consideration for quality is the name or the brand of the wine. In American wine, if
vintage is indicated in the label, it means the wine is really of excellent quality.
3. The price of the wine – price is a primary indicator of the quality of wine unless you take it from an
unreliable supplier or wine stores. The higher the price of course it means the higher the quality of
the wine. The cheaper the price the lower the quality.
4. The container of the wine – wine in plastic containers are usually low quality wine and are not for
aging.
5. The cork or stopper – wine stoppered with longer corks are wines with good quality and are meant
for aging. Wines stoppered with short cork and synthetic cork or plastic stopper are not for aging
but it doesn’t necessarily mean they are not of good quality.

LESSON 2 Wine Tasting and Evaluation

https://www.winemag.com/2015/08/25/how-to-taste-wine/

Wine Tasting Process: 5 basic steps

https://www.afoodieworld.com/tersina/rewriting-wine-101-taste-like-a-pro-series-1-of-3-an-eye-for-
wine

1. Sight/Color – to determine the intensity of color of the wine, hold the glass at the base or foot. If
your fingers are not visible it means it is intense. Move your fingers at the stem and if it is now
visible it means the wine is medium to pale in color.
2. Swirl – swirling the wine in the glass will facilitate the release of bouquet of the old wine or aroma
of the young wine.
3. Smell – to determine the intensity of the smell of the wine, after swirling the wine put the wine below
your chin. If you cannot smell the wine it means it is either medium or light but if you can smell it, it
means it is intense. Move the glass at your lower lip if you can now smell the wine it means the
wine is medium. But if you cannot smell the wine move the glass to your nose to detect what
particular smell the wine has.
4. Sip/Taste – take a mouthful of wine to really detect or determine the actual taste and texture of the
wine.
5. Savor- savoring the wine is necessary in order to appreciate the wine.

Wine Components/Elements:
• Acids
• Tannins
• Alcohol
• Sugar

Senses Used for tasting and Evaluating Wines:


• Sight
• Smell
• Taste
Sight
Take a closer look at the color of the wine.
1. Greenish, pale yellow, straw-colored or golden for white.
2. Clear red, purple, ruby or dark red for red wines.
3. Grey, pinkish purple or light red for rose wine.

Smell
Use your sense of smell to appreciate the bouquet or aroma of wines, powerful, delicate, subtle,
and fresh. Rich, spicy wine are full bodied, sometimes redolent of certain flowers or fruits. To fully appreciate
the bouquet, fill the glass 1/3 full and swish the wine around the sides so that the smell is released and last
longer.

Taste
The tongue distinguish four tastes: sweet, salty, acid and biter. In addition to letting you perceive
the taste of the wine, the tasting process will tell you where the wine comes from, what types of grapes
were used to make it, how old it is and so on.

Parts of the tongue that Identifies Tastes:


• Tip – sweet taste
• Side – acid taste
• Middle – salty taste
• Back – bitter taste

Terms Used to Describe How Wine Looks:


• Cloudy – the wine is hazy in appearance.
• Gras (literally “fat” in English) – the wine is full bodied, smooth and mellow.
• Limpid – the wine looks perfectly clear and pure.
• Sirupeux – the wine has syrupy consistency.
• Watery – the wine looks more like water, lacking in depth of color which characterize good wine.

Terms Used to Describe How the wine Smells:


• Balsamic – the wine smell like raisin or balsam. Vanilla, incense and conifer fall into this category.
• Barnyard smell – some old red wines smell like meat or venison. Amber, musk and leather smells
also fall into this category.
• Odeurs etherized – wine smells like ether or alcohol or nail polish, yeast and fermentation.
• Floral – the wine smells like flowers and many possibilities.
• Fruity – the wine smells like fruit – many possibilities.
• Mineral smell – wine smells like flint, chalk, limestone, earth or dust
• Spicy – wine smells like spices or herbs.
• Vegetable smell – wine smells like grass, leaves, fresh or moldy greenery.
• Woody – the smell acquired during the tannin development or when is aged in wooden cask.

Term Used to Describe How the Wine Tastes:


• Acid – the wine has acidity level giving it a green biting taste.
• Bitter – the wine leaves a bitter after-taste that may mask other senses
• Dry (sec) – the wine has no perceptible trace of sugar.
• Extra-dry (burst) – the wine is extremely dry, with no trace of sugar. This term is generally used to
describe Champagne.
• Fresh (frais) –wine is well balanced in terms of acidity, giving an impression of freshness.
• Lively (vif) – wine taste fresh, dominant but not excessive acidity.
• Soft (mou) – the wine does not have acidity or vivacity.
• Sweet (doux) – the wine taste naturally, generally the sugar level is somewhere between semi-
sweet and syrupy.
• Syrupy (liquoreux) – the wine is very high in sugar and usually very smooth in texture.

LESSON 6 Wines and Food Pairing

https://wine-logic.com/wine-food-pairing/

The general rules in pairing food with wines are:


1. For the color – red wines goes with red or darker meats; white wines goes with white meats.
2. For taste or flavor – strong flavored foods goes with strong, robust, full bodied wines; light flavored
foods goes with light bodied and fruity wines.

There are basic examples of wines and food paring.


1. Sweet
The sweetness in food cancels the “fruit” and/or any residual sugar in wines, making wines
taste drier. Sweet dishes or desserts call for wines of at least the same level of sweetness.
Ex.
Strawberry pie - sauternes dessert wine
2. Salty
Foods that are salty or briny also called the “fruit” in wines. Salty foods call for wine that
are aromatic with high acidity, some sweetness, low tannins and/or intense fruitiness.
Ex.
Fresh oysters in Champagne – Sauvignon Blanc or sparkling wine
3. Tart
Tart foods cancel some of a wine’s fruity flavor. Serve them with lightly sweet, very fruity,
and/or full bodied white wines. In some instances, wine that are tart or crisp will also work well.
Ex.
Lemon fish fillet and a crisp Chardonnay
4. Spicy
Foods that are spicy/hot will also somehow cancel the fruitiness of the wine. Serve these
kinds of foods with lightly sweet, very fruity, low tannin, and/or crisp wines. Avoid wine with higher
alcohol, tannic red, and/or oaky wines.
Ex.
Sea Scallops with Jerk Marinade and Sauvignon Blanc or Gewurztraminer.
5. Rich
Delicately flavored, lighter bodied wine are usually overpowered by rich dishes. Serve
these dishes with full flavored, full bodied, higher acid wines.
Ex.
Braised Lamb Ribs and Cabernet Sauvignon
6. Fish and Game
Fish and game can overpower mildly flavored, medium bodied, dry wines. Serve fish and
games with very fruity, full bodied, high acid, and/or medium sweet wines.
Ex.
Stewed wild duck with Pernod and Baby Spinach with Pinot Noir or Merlot
7. Cheese
Cheese and wine make an excellent classic pairing. Match the ‘weight’ of the cheese to
the wine, or reverse. You may try contrasting a rich, salty cheese with a dessert wine.
Ex.
Gruyer and Dessert Wine or Sherry

LESSON 7 Wine Selling Tips

Every waiter must be familiar with the restaurant’s wine list so that he could make the correct and
appropriate wine recommendation to the customer.

compliment his order.
2. In making wine suggestions, offer two recommendations with different price ranges.

LESSON 9 Settlement of Guest Bill

1. Upon accomplishing the order slip, endorse one copy to the cashier. If a manual order taking is
used. If a computerized point of sales is used, the terminal in the cashier’s station already has the
orders posted and the cashier simply generates the bill once she is told that there no more
additional orders.
In a manual method, the cashier shall check completeness of information in the Order Slip and then
sign it to signify that it was verified. Then she will insert the order slip in an Order Slip rack,
corresponding to the applicable table number.
2. If there are no more orders, advice the cashier to close the order. Then the cashier will pull out the
order slip in the rack and prepare the bill. She shall put the bill in a bill folder and hand it over to the
Bill Server for him to present to the guest.
If two checks are used, both pages shall be clipped together to avoid misplacing any page. The
check number must be written on the second check.
3. Upon pick up of the bill, review the figures first before presenting it to the customer.

Check if the following information are clearly indicated in the check:


• Name of guest (if charged to room) and the server, table number, date and number of guests,
items ordered and quantity of orders;
• Whether all items that were served are properly charged;
• Sales tax and service charge (if applied) are added to the bill;
• That no item other than what is served is included in the bill;
• Right check is used – food check for food orders; beverage check for beverage orders

In a table with a group of customers, find out if only one bill or individual bills will be made.
To avoid guest complaints, thoroughly verify all entries in the bill before presenting them to
the guest. Any correction must be authorized and signed by the supervisor.
4. After verifying the accuracy of figures in the order slip, present the bill in a bill folder with the amount
face down. Then he shall give the bill to the host or to the gentleman if the host is not known.
5. If cash is received, count the money in front of the host. Mention the amount received: “Sir, I
received 1000”.
Any shortage should be settled outright before leaving the table. Then the cash is turned over
to the cashier.
6. The cashier, upon receipt of cash shall:
• Count the money in view of the waiter;
• Indicate the amount received as settlement of the bill on the tape receipt attached to the order
slip;
• Encircle the amount and sign near the amount to signify actual receipt of amount indicated;
and
• Give the change (if any) to the waiter and place it in a change tray.
7. The waiter shall give the change to the guest and say: “Your change sir”.
8. If the guest opts to pay by credit card, the waiter shall endorse the card to the cashier for proper
verification. Mention to the customer the card received, “Sir, I received a Citibank master card”.
9. The cashier upon receipt of the credit card, shall
Secure an approval from the credit card company
• Swipe the credit card through the bank credit authorization terminal; and
• Enter the bill amount and wait for bank approval.
If the terminal gives an approval, print the bank sales slip in duplicate and validate the
same in the POS (point of sales). Then put back the bill and validate bank sale slip into the bill
folder.
Hand over the bill to the Bill Server for him to secure the guest’s signature on the bank
sales slip.
If the terminal gives an approval but does not print the bank sales slip imprint a matching
bank charge slip. Then validate the same in the POS. put back the bill and validated bank sales
slip into the bill folder and hand it over to the Bill Server for him to secure the guest’s signature on
the bank sales slip.
Ensure that the following information are on the bank sales slip:
• Name of Cardholder and Credit Card number
• Expiration date of the card
• Total amount of purchase
• Approval number
If the terminal declines the transaction for any reason, the cashier shall advise the Bill
Server who will in turn advise the Outlet Supervisor about the situation. The latter shall tactfully
inform the guest of the disapproval and politely requests for another card.
If the guest decides to pay in cash, refer to procedures for handling of cash payments.
Extra caution should be taken in handling declined cards, insuring that the guest is not
placed in an embarrassing situation. The supervisor should talk to him away from the view of other
guests. He should never say his card is declined or suspended. Just tell him that you have difficulty
getting a clearance from the credit card company. Ask him for any other credit card.
“Sir, I have difficulty obtaining credit approval for your credit card. Do you have any other
card?”
If he has no other card, request for cash payment:
“Do you mind settling the bill in cash instead?”
10. If a guest has a signing privilege (as in membership clubs), check first the status of his account
before allowing him to sign. If his signing privilege is suspended, the manager must discreetly talk
to the guest in private.
Critical issues like suspended cards or signing privilege should be handled only by the
supervisor who may also consult with the manager for a decision on the matter. He/she must talk
to the guest in private ensuring that the conversation is not overheard by the guests.
11. If the customer is registered guest in a hotel and wants to charge the bill to his room, check first if
he is allowed to sign. Some guest accounts are placed on “cash basis” in which case the guest is
not authorized to sign.
If the guest insists, the manager must secure clearance or approval from the
Accounting/Credit office before allowing the guest to sign the charges.

SYNTHESIS
In the Philippines, there are no wine grapes productions but we do have produced from our local
ingredients. These are the local wines we have: Duhat wine or the Philippine Black Plum wine; Tuba or
Palm wine; Basi or Sugarcane wine; Tapuy or Rice wine; other tropical fruit wines: Strawberry wine; Mango
wine; Guava wine; and Bignay wine.
Wine is an alcoholic beverage that is produced from a partial and/or complete fermentation of the juice
of fresh ripe grapes. Wine is a naturally fermented juice of grapes. But if a wine is produced or fermented
from other source or fruits, the name of the source/fruit must be specified.
Wines are category into still wine/table wine and sparkling wine. Still wine/table wine – a wine without
carbon dioxide. While Sparkling wine – wine that contains carbon dioxide
Factors affecting the quality of wine are: the types of grapes used; the types of soil/location; the
climate; and the skill/knowledge of the wine maker.
Steps in manufacturing still wines are: harvesting; crushing; fermenting; red and rose wine;
cuvaison/vatting; racking/settling; maturing/aging; maturing; aging; filtering/fining/clarifying; and bottling.
Factors to consider in selecting quality wines are: the wine classification; the vintage of the wine;
the price of the wine; the container of the wine; and the cork or stopper.
Wine Tasting Process: 5 basic steps are the following: sight/color; swirl; smell; sip/taste; and savor.
The general rules in pairing food with wines are: for the color – red wines goes with red or darker
meats; white wines goes with white meats. And for taste or flavor – strong flavored foods goes with strong,
robust, full bodied wines; light flavored foods goes with light bodied and fruity wines.
Here are some guide in bussing and clearing the table: 1.To maintain the cleanliness of the table,
soiled dishes should be immediately removed. Ashtrays once soiled, even with just one cigarette but should
be changed with clean ones following the procedures.; 2.When everyone at the table has finished eating
the dish served, remove all the soiled china wares, flat wares and glasses. Also pick up condiments that
are no longer used. But do not clear the water glass and coffee cups since they should be refilled. Remove
them only after the guests have left the table. Water glass shall be refilled once empty or almost empty.;
3.Bus soiled glasses on the right side, make an excuse or ask permission from the guest and say: “Excuse
me sir, may I take your plate now?” or “May I clear the table now?”; and etc.
The following are guide in settlement of guest Bill: 1.Upon accomplishing the order slip, endorse
one copy to the cashier. If a manual order taking is used. If a computerized point of sales is used, the
terminal in the cashier’s station already has the orders posted and the cashier simply generates the bill
once she is told that there no more additional orders.; 2.If there are no more orders, advice the cashier to
close the order. Then the cashier will pull out the order slip in the rack and prepare the bill. She shall put
the bill in a bill folder and hand it over to the Bill Server for him to present to the guest.; and etc.
Bidding goodbye and thanking the guests are the following: 1.Once the bill is settled, give back the
change if any, in a change tray as you say: “Your change sir/ma’am.”; 2.Never wait for a tip nor suggest it.
Neither should you touch the change tray and count any tip until the guest has left the table.; and 3.When
the guests start to depart from their tables, be alert in bidding them goodbye and thank them for their
patronage. Invite them to come again. “Thank you sir/ma’am for dining with us. We look forward to your
next visit.”

CHAPTER 6 BASICS OF COFFEE


INTRODUCTION

LESSON 1 Definition

Coffee is widely consumed non-alcoholic beverage prepared from the roasted seeds commonly
called the beans of the coffee plant.

LESSON 2 History

The history of coffee can be traced at least as early as the 9th century, when it appeared in the
highlands of Ethiopia.
• (circa A.D. 800) Goats will eat anything.
Discovery of coffee was credited to Kaldi, the legendary Ethiopian goatherd. Kaldi noticed
his herd dancing from one coffee shrub to another, gazing n the cherry-red berries containing the
beans. He copped few for himself and was soon frolicking with his flock.
• Witnessing Kaldi’s goatly gambol, a monk plucked berries for his brothers. The night they were
uncannily alert to divine inspiration.
• History tells us other Africans of the same era fueled up on protein-rich coffee-and-animal-fat balls
– primitive Power Bars – and unwound with wine made from coffee-berry pulp.
• From Ethiopia, it spread to Egypt and Yemen, and by the fifteenth century had reached Persia,
Turkey, and northern African.

ESCAPE FROM ARABIA


(Circa 1000 to 1600) Coffee, as we know it kicked off in Arabia, where roasted beans were first
brewed around A.D. 1000.
• Arab traders brought coffee back to their homeland and cultivated the plant for the first time on
plantations. They also began to boil the beans, creating a drink they call “qahwa” (literally, that
which prevents sleep).
• By the 13th century Muslims were drinking coffee religiously. The “bean broth” drove dervishes into
orbit kept worshippers awake, and splashed over into secular life. And wherever Islam went, coffee
went too: North Africa, the eastern Mediterranean, and India.
• 1453: Coffee is introduced to Constantinople by Ottoman Turks. The world’s first coffee shop, Kiva
Han, opened there in 1475.
• 1511: Khair Beg, the corrupt governor of Mecca, tried to ban coffee for fear that its influence might
foster opposition to his rule.
• Arabia made export beans infertile by parching or boiling, and it is said that no coffee seed sprouted
outside Africa or Arabia until the 1600s – until Baba Budan. As tradition has it, this Indian pilgrim-
cum-smuggler left Mecca with fertile seeds strapped to his belly. Baba’s bean bore fruit and initiated
an agricultural expansion that soon reached Europe’s colonies.
• 1600-1607: Captain John Smith helped to found the colony of Virginia at Jamestown. It’s believed
that he introduced coffee to North America.
• From the Muslim world, coffee spread to Italy, according to historical sources.

EUROPE CATCHES THE BUZZ (1615 to 1700)


• The thriving trade between Venice and the Muslims of North Africa, Egypt, and the Middle East
brought many African goods, including coffee, to this port. Merchants introduced coffee to the
wealthy in Venice, charging them heavily for it, and introducing it to Europe.
• Coffee became more widely accepted after it was deemed an acceptable Christian beverage by
Pope Clement VIII in 1600 despite appeals to ban the Muslim drink.
• 1642: The first European coffee house opened in Italy.
• 1652: First coffeehouse opened in England.
• It was introduced in France in 1657, and in Austria and Poland following the Battle of Vienna, when
coffee was captured from supplies of the defeated Turks.
• 1668: Coffee replaced beer as New York City’s favorite breakfast drink.
• 1690: The Dutch were the first to import large-scale into Europe, and eventually smuggled
seedlings into Europe in 1690, defying the Arabs prohibition on exporting the plants or unroasted
seeds.
• The Dutch later grew the crop in Java and Ceylon. Through the efforts of British East India
Company, it became popular in England as well.

COFFEE BLOOMS IN BRAZIL (Circa 1727 to 1800)


• 1727: Brazil’s government wanted a cut of the coffee market, but first, they needed an agent to
smuggle seeds from a coffee country. Enter Lt. Col. Francisco de Melo Palheta, the James Bond
of beans.
Colonel Palheta was dispatched to French Guiana, ostensibly to mediate a border dispute.
Eschewing the fortress like coffee farms, suave Palheta chose a path of less resistance – the
governor’s wife. The plan paid off. At a state farewell dinner she presented him a sly token of
affection: a bouquet spiked with seedlings.
From these scant shoots sprouted the world’s greatest coffee empire. By 1800 Brazil’s
monster harvests would turn coffee from an elite indulgence to an everyday elixir, a drink for the
people.
• 1732: Johann Sevastian Bach composed his Kaffee-Kantate. Partly an ode to coffee and partly a
stab at the movement in Germany to prevent women from drinking coffee (it was thought to make
them sterile), the cantata include the aria, “Ah! How sweet coffee tastes! Lovelier than a thousand
kisses, sweeter far than muscatel wine! I must have my coffee.”
• 1773: The Boston Tea Party made drinking coffee a patriotic duty in America.
• 1775: Prussia’s Frederick the Great tries to block imports of green coffee, as Prussia’s wealth was
drained. Public outcry changed his mind.
• 1812: After the war of 1812, in which Britain had temporarily cut off access to tea imports, the
American’s taste for coffee grew during the War together with the add advancements of brewing
technology secured the position of coffee as an everyday commodity in the United States.
• 1886: Former wholesale grocer Joel Cheek names his popular coffee blend ‘’Maxwell House,’’ after
the hotel in Nashville, TN where it was served.
• Early 1900s: In Germany, afternoon coffee became a standard occasion. The derogatory term
‘’KaffeeKlatsch’’ was coined to describe women’s gossip at these affairs. Since broadened to mean
relaxed conversation in general.
• 1990: Hills Bros. began packing roast coffee in vacuum tins, spelling the end of the ubiquitous local
roasting shops and coffee mills.
• 1901: The first soluble ‘’instant’’ coffee was invented by Japanese-American chemist Satori Kato
of Chicago.
• 1907: In less than a century, Brazil accounted of 97% of the world’s harvest
• 1920: Prohibition went into effect in United States. Coffee sales boomed.
• 1938: Having been asked by Brazil to help find a solution to their coffee surpluse, Nestle company
invented freeze-dried coffee. Nestle developed Nescafe and introduces it in Switzerland.
• 1940: The US imported 70 percent of the world coffee crop.
• 1942: During W.W.II, American soldiers were issued with instant Maxwell House coffee in their
ration kits. Back home, widespread hoarding led to coffee rationing.
• 1946: In Italy, Achilles Gaggia perfected his espresso machine. Cappuccino was named for the
resemblance of its color to the robes of the monks of the Cappuccino order.
• 1969: One week before Woodstock, the Manson Family murdered coffee heiress Abigail Folger as
she visited with friend Sharon Tate in the home of filmmaker Roman Polanski.
• 1971: Starbucks opened its first store in Seattle’s Pike Place public market, creating a frenzy over
fresh-roasted whole bean coffee.
• 1979: Mr. Cappuccino opened for business!
• Today, coffee is one of the popular beverages worldwide, its volume amounting to about a third of
that of tap water in North America and Europe.

LESSON 3 Coffee Countries

• BEAN BELT: From humble origins in Africa, coffee cultivation wandered east and west, eventually
forming a belt roughly bounded by the Tropics of Cancer and Capricorn.
• Growing regions typically offer moderate sunshine and rain, steady temperatures around 70 ̊F
(20 ̊C), and rich porous soil. In return, the delicate tree yields beans that were an economic
mainstay for dozens of countries and about 25 million people – and, among natural commodities,
have a monetary value surpassed only by oil. Of the two main coffee trees, arabicas begot the
better beans – and about 70 percent of the harvest. The harsher beans of the hardier robusta tree
account for about 30 percent.

Top Ten Coffee-Producing Countries


(Based on the number of 132-pound [60-kilogram] bags produced during the 1997-98 crop year,
according to the U.S. National Coffee Assosiation.)
1. Brazil. Today Brazil is responsible for about a third of all coffee production, making it by far the
heavyweight champion of the coffee-producing world. Notable Beans: Bahia, Bourbon Santos
2. Columbia. Columbia’s coffee grows in the moist, temperate foothills of the Andes, where the
combination of high altitude and moist climate makes for an especially mild crop. Notable Beans:
Medellin, Supremo, Bogota.
3. Indonesia. Top-grade arabicas are still produced on Java as well as on Sumatra, Sulawesi, and
Flores, but the Indonesian archipelago is the most notable as the world’s largest producer or
Robusta beans. Notable Beans: Java, Sumatra, Sulawesi (Celebes).
4. Vietnam. Notable Beans: Vietnam specializes in Robusta production.
5. Mexico. Mexico is the largest source of U.S. coffee imports. Notable Beans: Altura, Liquidambar
MS, Pluma Coixtepec.
6. Ethiopia. The natural home of the Arabica tree and the setting for most coffee’s origin legends,
Ethiopia is Africa’s top Arabica exporter and leads the continent in domestic consumption. About
12 million Ethiopians make their living from coffee, whose name is said to be a derivation of “Kaffa,”
the name of an Ethiopian province. Notable Beans: Harrar, Sidamo, Yirgacheffe.
7. India. According to legend, India is the birthplace of coffee cultivation east of Arabia. Notable
Beans: Mysore, Monsooned Malabar
8. Guatemala. Today the country’s high-grown beans, particularly those grown on the southern
volcanic slopes, are among the world’s best. Notable Beans: Atitlan, Huehuetenango
9. Cote d’Ivoire. Notable Beans: Cote d’Ivoire specializes in robusta production
10. Uganda. Notable Beans: Bugisu

LESSON 4 Coffee Varietals

4.1 Coffee Arabica. Arabica coffee is considered to have a better flavor than robusta. For this reason,
about three fourths of coffee cultivated worldwide is of the Arabica variety.
1. Most Arabica coffee beans originated from either Latin America, East Africa/Arabia, Or
Asia/Pacific.

4.2 Coffee Robusta – compared to Arabica, robusta tend to be bitter and with less flavor.
1. However, robusta coffee is less susceptible to disease than Arabica, and can be cultivated in
environments where Arabica will not thrive.
2. Robusta also contains about 40-50% more caffeine than Arabica. For this reason it is used as an
inexpensive substitute for Arabica in many commercial coffee blends.
3. Good quality robustas are used in some espresso blends to provide a better foam head, and to
lower the ingredient cost.

4.3 Coffea liberica – in the Philippines it is the variety used for kapeng barako.

4.4 Coffea esliaca


1. Believed to be indigenous to Liberia and southern Sudan.

4.5 Arabica varietals


1. Colombian. Today Maragogype, Catura, Typica and Bourbon cultivars are grown. When Colombian
coffee if freshly roasted, it has a bright acidity is heavy in body and is intensely aromatic. Colombia
accounts for about 12% of the coffee market (by value) in the world, second only to Brazil.
2. Colombian Milds – includes coffees from Colombia, Kenya, and Tanzania, all of which are washed
arabics.
3. Costa Rican Tarrazu – from the San Marcos de Tarrazu valley in the highlands outside of San
Jose.
4. Ethiopian Harar – from the region of Harar, Ethiopia. Known for its complex, fruity flavors that
resembles a dry red wine.
5. Ethiopian Sidamo from the Sidamo (now Oromia) region of Ethiopia as well. All three are
trademarked names with the rights owned by Ethiopia.
6. Ethiopian Yirgacheffe – from the area of the town of Yirga Cheffe in the Sidamo (now Oromia)
region of Ethiopia. All three are trademarked names with the rights owned by Ethiopia.
7. Guatemala Huehuetenango – g rown at over 5,000 feet in the northern region, one of the most
remote growing regions in Guatemela.
8. Hawaiian Kona – g rown on the slopes of Hualalai on the Kona District on the Big Island of Hawaii.
Coffee was first introduced to the Islands by Chief Boki, the Governor of Oahu, In 1825.
9. Sumatra Mandheling and and Sumatra Lintong – M andheling is named after the similarly spelt
Mandailing Batak ethnic group located in North Sumatra, Indonesia. The name is the result of a
misunderstanding by the first foreign purchaser of the variety, and no coffee is actually produced
in the ‘’Mandailing Region’’. Lintong of the other hand, is named after the Lintong district, also
located in North Sumatra.
10. Sulawesi Toraja, Kalossi – grown at high altitudes on the Island of Sulawesi (formerly Celebes) in
the middle of the Malay archipelago Indonesia. Celebes exhibits a rich, full body, well-balanced
acidity (slightly more than Sumatra) and is multi-dimensional in character. It has dark chocolate
and ripe fruits under stones. It is an excellent for darker roasting. Because of its semi-dry
processing, it may roast a bit unevenly.
11. Tanzania Peaberry – grown on Mount Kilimanjaro in Tanzania. “Peaberry” means that the beans
come from a cherry (coffee fruit) instead of the usual two. Peaberries are naturally occurring and
account for approximately 10% on any crop.
12. Uganda – although it mostly produces robusta coffee, there is a quality Arabica blend grown as
Bugishu.

4.6 Robusta varietals


1. Whilst not separate varieties of bean, unusual and very expensive robustas are the Indonesian
Kopi Luwak and the Philippine Kape Alamid. The beans are collected from the droppings of the
Common Palm Civet, whose digestive processes give it a distinctive flavor.

LESSON 5 The Different Coffee Bean Roasts

5.1 Dark Roasts (14 minutes)


1. The darkest roasts such as Italian Roast are also known as “Heavy Roast” with beans roasted
nearly to jet black giving a smoky well roasted taste which masks the natural flavors of the coffee
bean.

5.2 Medium Dark Roasts (12 to 13 minutes)


1. Medium dark roast is when the beans roasted for a long time at a high temperature enough to bring
the natural oil of the coffee to the surface.
2. Some examples of medium dark roasts are:
• French Roast – also known as “Dark Roast” French Roast beans are often used to make
espresso.
• Continental Roast – slightly lighter than French Roast but with spicy body.
• Viennese Roast – roasted a little longer than regular American roast and has rich chocolaty
body/flavor.
• Full City Roast – even darker than City roast.

5.3 Medium Roasts (9 to 11 minutes)


1. Medium roasts balance body with flavor.
2. Some examples of medium roasts are:
• Breakfast Roast – a bit sweeter than a light roast.
• American Roast – not as dark as any of the European roasts but has a good aroma.
• City Roast – it is darker than the standard American roast.

5.4 Light Roasts (7 minutes)


1. A light roast gives a very subtle light bodied flavor.
2. Some examples of light roasts are:
• New England Roast
• Half City Roast
• Cinnamon Roast – where the surface of the bean is dry with no oils present and flavor is light-
bodied.

LESSON 6 Important Factors in Brewing Coffee

Here are some of the factors to be considered in order to produce the right brew of coffee.
1. The coffee beans – to produce good quality brewed coffee, we need good quality freshly roasted
beans.
2. The roast – using the right roast of coffee for a particular type of drink and preference.
3. Right grind of coffee – using the right grind or coarseness of coffee bean on a particular coffee
maker to be used will produce the right quality coffee brew.
4. Right amount of coffee – 2 level of teaspoon of ground coffee per 6 ounce cup.
5. Equipment – use clean and properly maintained and well-functioning equipment.
6. Water – use fresh water or treated water, don’t use distilled water, it will produce coffee that tastes
flat.
7. The right temperature of brewing the coffee – coffee should be brewed 195 to 205 degrees
Fahrenheit or below the boiling point. Water should not be in boiling point for it may affect the quality
or taste of coffee and coffee cannot be drunk immediately thereby losing of its flavor while waiting
to cool it down.
8. Coffee must be served fresh – brewed coffee starts to evaporate immediately and start to lose
some of its flavor after brewing and noticeable loss of flavor after 20 min. in hot plate.

LESSON 12 Vocabulary of Tasting Terms


12.1 Aromas
1. Animal-like – this odor descriptor is somewhat reminiscent of the smell of animals. It is not a fragrant
aroma like musk but has the characteristic odor of wet fur, sweet, leather, hides or urine. It is not
necessarily considered as a negative attribute but is generally used to describe strong notes.
2. Ashy – the odor descriptor is similar to that of an ashtray, the odor of smoker’s finger or the smell
one gets when cleaning out the fireplace. It is not used as a negative attribute. Generally speaking
this descriptor is used by the tasters to indicate the degree of roast.

associated with smoke produce when burning wood. This descriptor is frequently used to indicate
the degree of roast commonly found by tasters in dark-roasted coffee.

SYNTHESIS
Coffee is widely consumed non-alcoholic beverage prepared from the roasted seeds commonly
called the beans of the coffee plant.
The history of coffee can be traced at least as early as the 9th century, when it appeared in the
highlands of Ethiopia. (Circa 1000 to 1600) Coffee, as we know it kicked off in Arabia, where roasted beans
were first brewed around A.D. 1000. The thriving trade between Venice and the Muslims of North Africa,
Egypt, and the Middle East brought many African goods, including coffee, to this port. Merchants introduced
coffee to the wealthy in Venice, charging them heavily for it, and introducing it to Europe. In 1727: Brazil’s
government wanted a cut of the coffee market, but first, they needed an agent to smuggle seeds from a
coffee country. Enter Lt. Col. Francisco de Melo Palheta, the James Bond of beans. Today, coffee is one
of the popular beverages worldwide, its volume amounting to about a third of that of tap water in North
America and Europe.
The following are the coffee varietals: Coffee Arabica; Coffee Robusta; Coffee liberica; and Coffee
esliaca.
