characteristics.
A2.1.1 The judges shall consider the following characteristics:
a) Colour,
b) Taste and flavour, and
c) Absence of defects.

described that the scores may be ascertained for each factor and expressed
numerically. The relative importance of each factor has been expressed
numerically on a scale of 100. Each judge shall give a score for the
individual factors, by the method described in Table 3 and record his
observations in the Score Sheet (see P 9).
A-2.2.1 The scores as number of points given by the judges for the
