Following the success of the previous edition of the Congress in Novara (Italy) in 2011, Naples (Italy) in 2013 and Aveiro (Portugal) in 2015 we are continuing the series of CoCoTea meetings, particularly focusing on the science of coffee, cocoa, tea, and related products.

The Fourth International Congress on Cocoa Coffee and Tea 2017 will offer an inter-disciplinary arena to enable scientists to discuss different aspects of the world of Coffee, Cocoa and Tea and to share innovative scientific achievements. These topics include chemistry, technology, metabolomics, nutritional aspects and health.

Food chemists, food technologists, nutritionists, medical doctors and operators/technicians from industry, are warmly invited to participate. We welcome inspiring new ideas and strongly promote the participation of students and young scientists and will be offering a grant to the best poster and oral presentations.

We are pleased to continue the great success of the previous meeting and look forward to seeing you in Turin in June 2017.
