Coffee, The Long Road to Quality
Presented by George Howell
There are countless coffee roasting companies and cafes claiming to serve great coffee. Gourmet, espresso, Fair Trade, Direct Trade, bird-friendly, dark roast, organic and more compete for the consumer’s attention. Beyond the labels fine coffee is as difficult and as complex to produce as the finest wines. How is the buyer to select?
This 3-hour interactive seminar is intended to give consumers an understanding of what actually goes into creating quality coffee, from farm to cup. It is meant to empower consumers by informing their palates as well as their minds. Multiple coffee tastings will give participants a new understanding of the taste differences between six regions of the world, new crop versus past crop, ripe versus unripe (same farm) and natural versus washed (Ethiopia, same region).
This coffee lab is the perfect opportunity to learn how to recognize taste differences between coffees produced across the globe!
