The principal objective is training judges in the sensorial evaluation of cocoa liquors counting with technical staff of the national federation of cocoa producers and small businessmen of the township San Vicente del Chucuri (S). We performed the selection of eighteen aspirants with a poll that allow us know general aspects like health, avai-lability, interest, motivation and liking of the product. The training was developed on classroom sessions; initially we made tests of basic flavor Identification, odors and colors. We evaluated the capacity of the aspirants with the application of test in pairs, duo-threesome and triangular with problem samples. Once it was done we made the specific training on scents and flavors that are found in the cocoa, not only in the intensity or the quality but also in the global qualification, and in the same way with the possible intensities of the defects. Finally we checked the training with the application of the variance analysis and the significant minimal differences with a confident level of the 0,05% to get a group of judges trained with abilities and competences in the analysis of cocoa liquors.
