An intimate, 90-min guided tasting of 3 rare European coffees with founder Trent Van Nordstrand at the Entropica Lab. Coffee + Science.
About this Event

Join Trent Van Nordstrand, founder of Entropica, for an intimate, 90-minute guided tasting of three significant coffees from our curated collection. This is a foundational experience for any true coffee connoisseur.

This is not a typical coffee tasting. It is a deep dive into the world of elite European roasters and our meticulous, science-driven brewing philosophy. The event takes place in the Entropica Lab, our private, scent-neutral tasting room designed for a focused, educational, and sensory experience.



What You'll Experience:


  • A Guided Sensory Journey: You will taste three distinct, world-class coffees side-by-side. Trent will guide you through the aromas, flavors, and textures of each, explaining the story of the producer and the roaster's unique approach.
  • The Science of Brewing: We will explore the technical side of coffee, from our deionized and re-mineralized water system to the specific, repeatable brewing protocols we have developed to achieve the perfect extraction.
  • An Open Dialogue: This is an interactive session. You will have the opportunity to ask questions, share your own tasting notes, and engage in a high-level discussion with fellow coffee obsessives.



Who This Is For:


This event is for the curious and passionate coffee lover, whether you are a seasoned professional or a home brewer who is serious about the craft. It is for anyone who wants to deepen their palate and understand coffee on a more profound level.



Your Host:


Trent Van Nordstrand is the founder and curator of Entropica. With a background in logistics and a decade dedicated to the obsessive pursuit of coffee, he has built Entropica to solve the problem of access to Europe's most significant roasters. His expertise is in both the science of extraction and the art of curation.



What's Included:


  • A 90-minute guided tasting of three world-class coffees.
  • A 50g sample bag of your favorite coffee from the tasting to take home.
  • Mineralized water and light snacks.
