    Date: Sunday, September 21 from 2 PM - 4PM

    About the Event

    Why do certain coffees delight your taste buds while others leave you wanting more? Join leading experts from Epoch Coffee for an intimate, hands-on coffee tasting experience that goes beyond your morning cup.

    In this 2-hour immersive class, you’ll be guided through a professional coffee cupping—using the coffee industry’s global standard for evaluating aroma, flavor, and quality. The cupping will be followed by sensory activities, designed to enrich the coffee tasting experience and help identify the complex flavors in coffee. No prior experience is needed—just curiosity and a love for coffee.
