You want to learn why Colombian coffee is so delicious. You would love to be able to evaluate coffee the way professionals do and make your daily coffee routine even more satisfying.
And you want to understand Colombia’s fascinating coffee history and what coffee means to Colombians. How sad it would be to leave Colombia and still not understand how coffee has affected the lives of millions of people here.
Learn the real meaning of coffee in Colombia with us! We've been coffee educators since 2014. During this walking experience in one of Bogota's best restaurant districts, your guide, a certified coffee expert, will tell you about the history of coffee up to innovative coffee brewing methods. You'll learn to appreciate the special characteristics of the coffees you'll taste and what makes Colombia an ideal country to grow coffee. We'll also do a professional-style coffee tasting at each shop visited.
Our public workshops are only in English.
At the second coffee shop we will also do a tasting to find the special characteristics in the coffee. But at this stop we'll discuss where coffee is grown in Colombia and why it is so important to millions of coffee growers. We'll also discuss how roasting affects what you get in the cup.
Our workshops include stops at three different specialty coffee shops in the Chapinero neighborhood of Bogota. At the first coffee shop we will do a coffee tasting and discuss important highlights of the history of coffee in Colombia, why coffee tastings are important, and how you can taste coffee like the pros do.
