Commonly used in reference to wine, afternose compliments aftertasteAftertaste refers to lingering residual sensations in the mouth after coffee has swallowed. It might be distinguished from "finish" which is the final sensations of the coffee while..., but refers to residual olfactory sensations after the coffee has left the palate. Afternose would be sensed largely by the restronasal perception of the taster, where aromatics enter the olfactory through the back of the palate.
