Next Coffee Tasting

Monday, August 31st, 2009

We had a very successful first cupping session this past Friday, a great mix of coffee beginners and baristas from Oslo were there to taste, before anyone else, the new Colombian coffee, which is now on sale in the store and the soon to be released Cielito Lindo from Honduras, which was cupping beautifully.

The tastings will cover all the Tim Wendelboe single origin coffees, and perhaps a reference cup of supermarket quality coffee to demonstrate the contrasts in coffee quality.

There is a limit of 6 places per session, and the times and dates will change each week.

The second session will be held this Friday 4th of September at 2pm, and there are now no more places remaining.

Please let us know if you would like to join, by leaving your name in the comments section or contacting us via email or phone.
