What to expect
01
Coffee 101
Where coffee comes from, how it's processed, and what roast level actually does — explained like a human, not a textbook.
02
Guided Cupping
We cup three coffees together using the same protocol specialty roasters use. You'll learn to evaluate aroma, acidity, body, and finish.
03
Take Something Home
At the end, you pick your favorite of the three and walk out with a 10oz bag. Plus a 4×6 flavor wheel print to keep.
On the table
Brazil
Cerrado
The anchor. Low acidity, full body, and the kind of chocolate-nutty warmth that makes sense to almost everyone.
Ethiopia
Yirgacheffe
The surprise. Floral and fruit-forward in a way that makes people ask if something was added to it.
Colombia
Huila
The middle ground. Balanced, caramel sweetness, and consistent. Showcases traditional coffee flavors, only elevated.

Questions
Do I need any coffee experience?
No. This class is designed for people who enjoy drinking coffee, not people who already know everything about it.
Where is it held?
At our roastery in Grand Rapids, MI. Address is sent with your confirmation.
How do I choose my take-home coffee?
At the end of the session, once you've tasted all three. No commitment required before you arrive.
Is there a waitlist if the session sells out?
Email us at hello@bibscoffee.com and we'll add you to the list for the next one.
