Coffee Tasting and Cupping Course - Basic Level (4 hours)

Duration: 1 day – 4 hours total (3:30 PM - 7:30 PM)

Format: In-person (Maximum 3 participants)

Discover the fundamentals of coffee tasting with a course designed to offer you a complete overview — theoretical and practical — of the techniques and tools used by professionals to evaluate coffee quality in the cup.

You will learn how a tasting session is structured, from official cupping protocols to the sensory evaluation of espresso.

🔍 What you will learn

In the first part of the course, you will train your senses to recognize the fundamental tastes of coffee: sweetness, acidity, bitterness, and body (yes, what you feel in your mouth, not the sugar sinking!).

We will then guide you on an olfactory journey between positive aromas — such as floral, fruity, or caramel scents — and common defects, to help you distinguish quality from mediocrity.

In the practical phase, you will test your new skills by tasting different coffee origins and profiles, with targeted and comparative exercises.
By the end of the course, you will have the tools to approach coffee with the sensitivity and awareness of a true professional taster.
