We're super excited to be supporting the wonderful folks of Cup North who are bringing their firstQUEER COFFEE COLLECTIVE's Brews & Brunch event to Margate!

Join in on 11th May at CAMP in Margate for a fabulous day filled with coffee, community, and queer camaraderie. Indulge in delicious brunch bites, get hands-on with a sauerkraut workshop, and dive into fringe events from the Margate LGBTQ+ community!

We're delighted to host our Roastery Tour & Sensory Workshop as part of the fringe events!

As the coffee geeks we are we invite you to come hang out in roasting space, have a peak behind the scenes of our coffee roasting and training operations and learn the ins and outs of what a day in the roastery looks like.

We've also prepared an interactive Sensory Workshop to explore how we perceive and communicate about flavour in coffee, with more than just flavour notes, think colours, shapes and textures!

And as always, we'll wind down with some tasty beers & wines.

This event is free and open to all! But places are limited so make sure to register for a ticket.

We can't wait to see you there!

Let’s learn how to taste coffee & unpack where its flavours come from!

This 2.5h sensory workshop is focused on exploring the journey of coffee from seed to cup, our perception of flavour and the sensory attributes we find in coffee and where they come from. 

The session is divided into three parts. In the first part of the session we learn about the factors contributing to forming a flavour profile of a coffee from seed to cup. Starting from geographical origins and plant genetics, through to agronomy and processing, roasting and brewing.

In the second part we explore various tastes, aromas and how they come together to form our sensory experience of flavour. We calibrate our palates by recognising aroma and flavour references we use in coffee evaluation.

And lastly, we bring this all together through a guided 'cupping' - professional coffee tasting. We experience first hand the impact that geography, processing, varieties and more have on the flavour in our cups.

Pricing:
£60 per person (incl. 20% VAT) INCLUDING A BAG OF COFFEE TO TAKE HOME!

Join us for an evening of guided coffee tasting. This one is a special edition with spotlight on Mexico and special guest - Jessie May Peters from our importing partner Raw Material!

Jessie will share a presentation about Mexican coffee production, particularly in the Oaxaca region where growers we purchase coffee are based, talk about some of the main challenges they face and opportunities speciality coffee can bring. We will also be virtually joined by Thomas Pingen from Red Beetle Coffee Lab - exporter partner in Mexico sharing more about the wonderful work they do with the producing communities. And finally we will taste a table full of Mexican coffee delights from community lots through traditional micro-lots all the way to special preperation and rare variety selections. It’s sooo much fun!

All level of experience are welcome and it is a free event but please let us know you’re coming.

We cannot wait to see you there!

We are passionate about sharing what we do with our community of coffee lovers and are excited to resume hosting regular open cuppings - coffee tastings - in our Margate cafe. Happening roughly once a month, we prepare a guided cupping of our current (sometimes upcoming) offerings and share stories behind the coffees and their producers. In our usual vibe, we enjoy a drink or two after.

Our cuppings are open to all, no experience necessary. The event is free of charge and drinks are on us but if you’re able to, we suggest making a small donation (£5-10) to our favourite Margate grassroots project - Dane Valley Woods - turning a former waste site into a thriving woodland for all to enjoy. You can make your contribution here.

The event is free but please let us know you’re coming by registering via the link below:

We look forward to seeing you there!
