Single Origin Espresso Training Class Now Available

imageIn this 2-3 hour class, learn to appreciate the individual flavors present in espresso blend while gaining a better understanding of single-origin coffees. Our trainers will guide you through a tasting of shots pulled using coffees sourced from a variety of regions. Since most baristas spend their days with only one blend in the grinder, this is a unique opportunity to taste how an espresso blend is created and why. And since espresso has the ability to magnify a coffee’s characteristics, you can identify the nuances of the ones you try. By discussing the more complex aspects of flavor notes, acidity, roast and body you will gain a deeper appreciation for the flavors present in your cup.
