Wonderful class and really great opportunity to learn about coffee! We now always return to Roastville for the best coffee in Sydney
Chun Lor • Dec 2019
We did a standard cupping process, tasted a variety of washed and natural single origin coffees.
George was really patient in his explanation of all the knowledge you needed to be aware of for coffees and in carrying out the tasting.
We could also ask any questions we wanted, and it was clear how passionate he was in the art form of roasting coffees, and how much he was willing to educate people on coffee.
Will definitely be back for the other workshops that Roastville / George conducts.
Yujin Park • Oct 2019
Absolutely loved our cupping class! Our instructor was extremely knowledgeable and personable, going extra miles to answer our questions. We love how ethical and customer-centred roastville is! :D
Megumi Sorimachi • Oct 2019
Good atmosphere, nice introduction, and amazing coffee. I had ever tasted coffee until this event, but it was inspired me a lot!
Tania Koosasi • Sep 2019
A great workshop, especially if you're new to coffee! Definitely learnt a good deal about coffee and how you can improve if you brew your own coffee at home. Thank you D!

George our cupping instructor was amazing. Super down to earth and great conversation. We learnt A LOT about something we drink almost every day. Not only about coffee itself though, but the whole industry.
The venue was super authentic- in the back of the cafe where the (roasting) magic happens!
We had a bite to eat as well as a coffee recommendation from George in the cafe afterwards which was amazing (my friend said it was the best coffee he’d had in HIS LIFE.
Overall super positive experience- highly recommended. I may even go again if I have family in town visiting.

It was so amazing class.
During the class, you could try variety coffee, get a lot of interesting things about coffee, and can see their fancy back stage for roasting.
Actually I'm studying about coffee, but even if you are just fan of the coffee, it will be good value to you. Really appreciate to 'D'.
By the way, it was my first time been there, so I was tried their coffee before class and after class, twice, it was sooo nice

We loved the workshop very much. Learnt quite few things about coffee and got to taste the beautifully crafted coffee. The teacher was very friendly, patient, and easygoing.
Fabrício Werneck • Aug 2019
The teacher was great. He explain everything cristal clear!
The venue was well organised, maybe the teacher could comment about all the stuffs and machinery that was there.
Basically I learned more about the variable taste and flavors that we can find in a coffee at all different temperatures.
Thanks

Yuanying Jiang • Jul 2019
Very good workshop for starting learning coffee. The teacher is so kind and patient to answer your questions. If you want to know more about coffee beans, this’s absolutely your first choice.
Michael Tan • Jun 2019
This was my first cupping experience and I enjoyed it so much. Our teacher, D, gave a lot of insight on the whole coffee process. I learned how different factors like geography and roasting time can alter the taste of the coffee. We had different varietals from across the world and D expertly helped us distinguish the nuances in flavor and aroma. I had a lot more appreciation for coffee after the workshop.
Richard Vergara • Jun 2019
The class takes you through the journey of coffee making, starting from the beans place of origin all the way to the preparation by the barista in order to explain the role of cupping in context. D was fantastic, sharing his experience and knowledge as a barista while keeping a friendly and interactive atmosphere. A really enjoyable experience, thanks again D! Will definitely come back when I get the opportunity.

We were introduced to coffees from various origins (Ethiopia, Myanmar, other bits of Africa etc.), which we got to smell and taste. D the teacher was approachable and happy to answer any questions.
Materials provided for the cupping session included ground coffee from different beans (and Roastville's house blend), beans roasted differently (natural/honey process), bean skins and even a sprig with coffee cherries from their own coffee plant. Nice touch as people normally see their coffee at the very end of its production but rarely would recognise a coffee bean plant, or what the beans look like at intermediate stages of the process.
We ended up not really touching on the other factors by which to evaluate a coffee (flavour, aroma, aftertaste, body, uniformity, balance) except acidity and sweetness, but that's ok. All in a great experience. Really nice of the Roastville guys to run this workshop.

John Sub • May 2019

Grace Pattison • May 2019
A fantastic class with an extremely knowledgeable and experienced teacher, relaxed pace, I highly recommend!
Natasha Sitanala • May 2019
We did the class as a taster before actually doing a barista course. D was very knowledgeable and patient with our questions. It’s a free class so it’s worth the Uber fare there. Will come back for more classes.
Michael O'Connor • May 2019
Great class, teacher was very informative as we tasted each of the coffee brews. Nice cafe with roasting setup out the back.
Quentin Satchwell • Apr 2019
Very well organized and run workshop. It was informative and covered several aspects of coffee tasting and processing in succinct way.
The guy running the class was very knowledgeable and had a pleasant manner.
I learnt a lot about the subject that will be helpful to my business.

Maria Carbone • Apr 2019
Excellent class. Leaner a lot of new things about coffee. Would definitely do another class there
Sue Park • Apr 2019
Thanks guys I learnt so much about coffee processing and the practice of cupping in coffee!
Alex Larsen • Apr 2019
This was a wonderful introduction to coffee tasting. I had always wanted to do a coffee cupping but felt intimidated by not knowing much about the process and how to taste. This workshop was relaxed and casual, but also really informative. I'd recommend this for anyone who's never done a cupping before and wants to learn more, and for those who have I think it's still a great opportunity to work on tasting and evaluating different coffees!
Miguel Hoyos • Apr 2019
Excellent introductory course! very recommended if you want to start your coffee career. very happy
Joey • Apr 2019
D was fantastic! He knew everything about coffee right from plantation to how you get the coffee into your cup. It was good to get to taste all the different varieties and notice the difference from their origin, harvet method and roasting qualities.
Heejin Dan • Apr 2019
Class size was good and it was a good 1hour introductory class about coffee including tasting. After the class, you will get a good idea which type of coffee you like and what to choose. You can order your coffee based on what you learn from the class after(not a part of the class). Really appreciate for offering a !fantastic !+ !free! classe
Sharon Muir • Apr 2019
Great teacher, excellent venue, some much to take in. I will definately appreciate my coffee more now that I know about the origin, processing and roasting of those amazing little beans

Great class and learnt a lot! However, timing did not match as they said 3pm and not 2 pm. Luckily we lived nearby so we were able to run some errands before coming back for the class.
Ilene Uy • Feb 2019
Superb and fun way to learn more about coffee - we learned the proper way of appreciating the different bean variety!

It was really amazing time to learn coffee bean and different tastes each coffee depending on how to roast them. I found my favorite coffee as well. Thank you!
Iwan Oen • Oct 2018
The training venue is a very good, very comfortable and very relaxing place. The cafe it self is a very good place for hanging out with friends, having a relaxing meeting with business client.
The teacher explaining a lot, more details explaining my question and give me more knowledge of tasting coffee. I am having a greatly experience to having a good cappuccino coffee from an excellent barista. It is highly recommend and good value for money.
I am greatly appreciate for having this class and many, many thanks for this opportunity, can't wait for the next workshop.

I absolutely enjoyed the class as I knew absolutely nothing about coffee tasting. The venue was really nice and everything was nicely laid out. The technicalities were explained well on coffee cupping. However the teacher spoke too fast and assumed too much. E.g. he started off by saying 'you know how cupping works?' this is why we are attending this class Again we didn't really learn the flavour profileswe were told its mainly guess work. We ended up asking the teacher so many questions to dot the lines in between. I guess it was a free class so we shouldn't expect much. Overall I learnt something and am considering the barista course. Hopefully as it's a paid class the teacher would explain a bit more.

Leona • Aug 2018
Class was well structured and provided valuable insights into what goes into making a good cup of coffee. Would certainly recommend it.
Tom • Jul 2018
Great 'cupping' experience, can't believe it was free of charge! We learnt a lot about how coffee is picked, dried and roasted and their unique flavours. We enjoyed trying the different types of coffee and even bought a bag of our favourite (Totora) at the end. Thanks Roastville!
