THE COFFEE TOURS

Specialty coffee is booming all around the world, with the emergence of new coffee shops and festivals, but also thanks to the implementation of quality beans in more and more hospitality places, grocery stores etc. However, specialty coffee is still far too unknown. Now is the time to explore the topic.

These caffeinated explorations of cities, and also the methods of preparation are unusual, fun as they are highly informative, and match a complete coffee basics course, with an extra sprinkle of fun and walking.

The OK Coffee Tours are for everyone, with a focus on the consumer/coffee lover experience to better understand your favorite beverage!

It is also suitable for hospitality professionals who are often still unaware of what specialty coffee is, helping them to understand the poor relation of their sector but also to better understand the customer experience related to coffee.

No prerequisites are necessary for this tour.

The goal of the OK Coffee Tours is to discover innovative places when it comes to specialty coffee, but also to discover and understand how to consume/taste coffee based on objective quality criteria.

Understanding the production chain from field to cup, the difference between specialty and commodity coffee, and learning how to better buy coffee are also central to the objectives of the Coffee Tours.

During the OK Coffee Tours, we wander through different areas, depending on the edition, because traveling around specialty coffee is always a great idea to discover local trends.

We will stimulate your taste buds, will make you aware of the different coffee professions and discuss various topics such as: the differences in philosophies and the new waves, preparation methods, consumption habits, the barista's job, the science behind milk, sugar, taste, quality, specialty coffee, labels, roasting styles, recipes etc... but also the information to decipher on the coffee bags in order to buy better and thwart global marketing.
