Discover the complexities of Panamanian speciality coffee, with all of its aromas and flavours.

Specialty Coffee Tasting

The goal of this two-hour coffee tasting experience is to learn about the many characteristics of coffee flavour and aroma.

Following SCA cupping protocol, the significance of using fresh coffee beans, temperature, water type, and grind size will be discussed.

Together, using a cupping sheet to record our observations, we taste 3 different coffee varieties and discuss the myriad flavours we detect in the coffee.

  • Our Coffee Tastings are designed for coffee lovers who would like to learn about Specialty Coffee in general, as well as specifically about coffee flavours and aromas. We organise this in a relaxed atmosphere where knowledge is gained in a fun manner. These coffee tastings are open to all ages and require no prior expertise.

    These Coffee Tastings can also perfectly be given within the framework of teambuilding, birthday – or bachelorette parties or event animation.

    For professional baristas, we advise booking or hospitality barista training, with an additional focus on professional coffee cupping of the coffee varieties that are offered in the coffeebar / restaurant.

Tips and exercises on how to further develop your taste palette at home will be shared.
