About this Event
Sweet coffee. Zero added sugar. Wait, what?
Let’s explore one of coffee's most fascinating attributes: sweetness.
Join us for a hands-on sensory experience where we’ll taste, experiment, and discover how our senses perceive sweetness.
We’ll explore different types of sugars, how aromas influence our perception, and why a cup of coffee can remind us of honey, caramel, or ripe fruit, without a single spoonful of sugar.
Expect a little sensory science, some surprising discoveries, plenty of tasting, and good conversations around the table.
No coffee expertise needed. Just curiosity, an open mind, and a love for discovering something new.
Come curious. Leave tasting differently.
Limited spots available.
