Effect of geographical origin on consumers' emotional response to alcoholic beverages: A study with wine and cider

Abstract

Consumers do not evaluate food products exclusively using sensory properties, but rather they judge them using both intrinsic (ex. sensory properties) and extrinsic (ex. brand, packaging, geographic origin) factors. Alcoholic beverages include a wide variety of information on their packaging, with one factor being geographic origin. The purpose of this study was to determine how geographic origins can influence a consumer's emotional response to alcoholic beverages (wine and cider). First, consumers were asked to identify wine and cider-producing countries. Then in the first trial, consumers (n = 112) evaluated wine samples from different geographic origins (

Exploring consumption profiles, consumer experience and quality claims of Canary Islands' cider (Spain): A multidimensional analysis

“…This implies that the PDO certification label scheme places greater demands on product quality, T A B L E 7 Logistic model for predicting "I focus on the PDO" (DV) in relation with the consumption experience. aligning with prior cider research (Knowles et al, 2022;Outreville & Le Fur, 2020). Introducing odds ratios with a significance level of p < 0.05, two additional attributes come into play: (8) The importance of the cider being local, (9) The sensory attribute associated with sweetness.…”

“…Existing studies have mainly focused on the production side's challenges, including the sudden growth of the US hard cider industry (Fabien-Ouellet & Conner, 2018). On the consumer side, research has explored consumer profiles for specific cider types (Didier et al, 2012), WTP for specific cider profiles (Tozer et al, 2015), and the influence of geographical origin on cider perception (Farris et al, 2019;Jamir et al, 2020;Knowles et al, 2022). Concurrently, the paucity of research in the field of cider stands in stark contrast to the burgeoning studies on beer or the longstanding existing research on wine.…”

Determining the predictors of wine purchase intention through the use of meta-analysis

“…Furthermore, other strongly felt attitudes and emotions, such as passion, love and enthusiasm, can also be analyzed as leading to purchase intention (e.g. Knowles et al, 2022;Meraz-Ruiz, Olague, Flores-Villanueva, & Perez-Cruz, 2023). Given the changed consumer environment due to the Covid-19 pandemic, topics such as environmental sustainability (e.g.…”

Young adults' taste perception, consumption habits, and how this influences their willingness to pay for wine: Evidence from an experimental auction

“…Namely, several studies (e.g., Capitello et al, 2021; D'Alessandro & Pecotich, 2013; Saïdi & Giraud, 2020) have identified the importance of the reference on a wine label to a protected designation of origin (PDO) and/or having an organic (ORG) certification. For one turn, the PDO reference certifies the uniqueness of the wine's place of origin, resulting from territorial characteristics and employed methods and techniques (González & Dans, 2018; Jorge, Lopez‐Valeiras, & Gonzalez‐Sanchez, 2021; Knowles et al, 2022). Besides, it adds value to consumers' eyes, as it makes the product more recognizable and provides assurance of specific organoleptic qualities (Jorge et al, 2021; López‐Bayón et al, 2020).…”
