BEAN TO CUP COFFEE EXPERIENCE
Book or gift one of our popular bean to cup coffee experiences at our roastery in the Surrey Hills.
The Bean to Cup Coffee Experience
After an introductory cup of coffee and roastery tour, we’ll look at green beans and explore how varietals, altitude, and processing methods affect the coffee flavour profile. Next, guests will roast a sample batch and discover how we create different profiles for the perfect espresso or filter roast. Then it’s time to “cup” the coffees side-by-side with an aroma kit to help guests identify unique flavours and find their coffee taste preference.
What we’ll provide
The tour will take place in our characterful coffee roastery, based in a converted stables behind a manor house in the Surrey Hills. A minimum of four coffees will be brewed via different methods throughout the tour, and a small snack will be provided to soak up the caffeine! Each guest will leave with an introductory taster pack so they can continue the tasting experience at home. Warm clothing is advisable.
