Free public coffee tastings ('cuppings') at Tangletown Zoka

What do you think? (No Comments) September 8, 2010 at 1:25PM

Zoka Coffee Roaster & Tea House is offering free public coffee tastings at its Tangletown coffee shop (2200 N 56th St):

Known as cuppings, these simple coffee brewings are a staple method of quality assessment inside the coffee trade.

The half-hour event starts off with a brief description of the coffees selected for tasting. Then, multiple samples of ground coffee are carefully brewed at the same time. Once brewed, spoonfuls are slurped to decipher the flavor range and unique characteristics of the coffees.

This is a great way to try our coffees in a unique fashion. Our knowledgeable staff will guide you through the process and provide you with some of our coffee perspective and insight.

The cuppings are tentatively scheduled for 3 p.m. on Saturdays in September (Sept 11, 18 & 25, 2010).  Call 206.545.4277 or check twitter or facebook to confirm.
