Coffee is one of the most consumed beverages in the world, with unique organoleptic characteristics of aroma and flavor, also varying according to the several extraction methods. Therefore, the objective of this study was to investigate whether the different Arabic coffee genotypes prepared by various extraction methods would influence amateur consumers' perception of sensory and hedonic judgments of specialty coffee. A large-sample experiment (n = 270) was conducted in a coffee shop at the Universidade Federal de Lavras and participants were divided into three groups according to the evaluated genotypes (Bourbon Amarelo, Pacamara and Híbrido de Timor), who tasted four samples, varying to the extraction methods ('Conventional Brewed', Hario V60, French Press and Espresso). From the results obtained, it is possible to conclude that there is a change in the sensory perception of aromas and flavors of coffees in all genotypes studied in the four extraction methods, as well as in the acceptance and purchase intention by consumers.
