"Degustation" es el acto de probar el sabor de algo.

Degustación is a very old Spanish word, today: "el acto de degustar" with "degustar" meaning "to savor, to taste food and beverages (esp. with relish)".

In recent times you can also hear degustación as the organized activity or event in which people are offered food or beverages for them to degustar. For instance "después del recorrido por las bodegas se les convidó con una degustación de vinos acompañados por diferentes variedades de queso de la región". This outstretched meaning is not fully admitted yet but its use is extended in many countries.
