Cupping Class - DOMA Coffee

Cupping is the formal process used across the coffee industry to evaluate quality and flavor attributes. It’s the universal method professionals use to assess fragrance, aroma, flavor, aftertaste, body, and acidity.

If you’ve ever seen a coffee professional hovering over a lineup of cups with a silver spoon, this is what they’re doing.
