Cupping

"There is no mystery to cupping, only endless intrigue." Geoff Watts, Intelligentsia coffee

We here at Marlow and Sons will be hosting cuppings every Friday in the month of March. Counter Culture, our new coffee purveyor, will be in our back room at 10 am pouring and discussing. The cupping process is a means for evaluating the intrinsic merits of coffee as well as compare different coffees on a level playing field. During each cupping we will evaluate three coffees from start to finish. We will take notes of the coffee's dry fragrance, aroma while steeping and the brightness, flavor, body and aftertaste of the coffee. After, we will compare and contrast notes, opinions and thoughts on what we sample. For many beginning cuppers, evaluating coffee with others will open your eyes and your taste buds to nuances in a coffee you might have otherwise missed.

Should be fun, I can't wait!
