About this Event

This special morning celebrates five decades of George Howell's dedication and influence in specialty coffee. George will reflect on his 50-year journey in coffee through conversation and a Q&A.

George will be joined by his daughter, Jenny Howell, VP & Director of Sourcing at George Howell Coffee, offering a unique, multi-generational perspective on coffee, terroir, and the future of the industry. The conversation will be thoughtfully moderated by Rachel Kanter, founder and owner of Lovestruck Books and Cafe, where George Howell Coffee is the café partner, and Rebecca Fitzgerald, President of George Howell Coffee.

The event will begin with approximately 45 minutes of moderated discussion, followed by an audience Q&A. Guests will also enjoy a guided coffee tasting led by George and Jenny, highlighting a coffee that reflects the heart of their work: Mamuto.
