This study focuses on the interaction between light and taste, specifically the interplay between atmosphere and wine taste. An experiment was conducted in a real restaurant environment to understand whether the atmosphere can influence the user's perception of wine taste. The experiment took place in a restaurant in Stockholm where sixteen participants with different backgrounds evaluated 100 ml of red wine through a questionnaire in four lighting ambiances. The participants were asked to describe the atmosphere and the wine in each lighting scenario. The key findings of the Light & Taste experiment revealed a significant influence of the atmosphere on individual preferences, taste perception, and wine intensity. However, it's important to underline that no definitive answer has been found, highlighting how taste perception is a personal experience. Interestingly, nine participants used similar values to describe ambiance and wine liking in at least three Ambiances. In other words, the atmosphere matches the wine liking of most participants. Determining how the atmosphere influences taste in an uncontrolled environment like a real restaurant needs more investigation.
