The main reason why this is rated great is because Kunaal is an exceptional teacher.
He is passionate, yet laid back and knowledgeable in a humble way.
The Roastville “lab” upstairs was comfortable and felt like a science lab where blends and single origins are created. Since it’s was a very small group we had a La Marzocco espresso machine each!

Host was very knowledgeable, I now know how a coffee cupping works, and I found some coffees that I absolutely loved on the day, the West Arsi being my favourite, which to me had notes of blueberries and manuka honey (though the latter could just be me confusing the funkiness of the dry processing together with the caramel note, as manuka honey was not one of the tasting notes on the card). I walked away with a bag of West Arsi and bought a bag of the Pink Bourbon CM downstairs.

Coffee Cupping Tasting Experience
It was a great class to get to learn about the taste of the coffee. I didn't know about the types of beans that could give a fruity flavour and now I know, which I am glad to have this lesson. One thing that could be improved would be the ways to taste the coffee, I didn't like the idea of sharing the same cups that has all the people spoons mixed in it.

He shows you a variety of beans and the process of production to grinding, brewing and tasting. This is a very interesting class where you explore the subtle yet very different nuances of flavor

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.

The teacher was experienced and knowledgeable. It was a bit crowded and at times hard to hear due to the noise from the cafe.
Great experience of learning how to do coffee cupping and the different filter methods and grind size.
Would have been great to be shown the variety of filter coffee equipment available for purchase. We were looking at the equipment ourselves and some were not shown in the class so we didn't know what to choose.
Lovely touch with a bag of coffee beans to take home.

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.

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. + more

Our trainer Andy was definitely trying to engage us from the beginning. The class ran for the full 3.5 hours. Andy focused a lot on explaining his technique but the trade off was not getting much/any practice. There were 9 students & one machine with two steam wands so two people could practice at a time. That may sound like a fair ratio but I was surprised. In the entire duration, some people got to do up to 3 pours, others 2 and in my case 1. Baffling as it already was, I didn’t believe it was very fair as what determined the number of poursOur trainer Andy was definitely trying to engage us from the beginning.

In the entire duration, some people got to do up to 3 pours, others 2 and in my case 1. Baffling as it already was, I didn’t believe it was very fair as what determined the number of pours each person got to do was literally how students judged your art in a “smashout” between pairs. I agree that getting into the mindset of a being in a latte art competition (and focusing on theoretical technique) is useful, but not if we are unable to even try out the technique even once (i was given one go at the heart but not at the rosetta, free pour or even tulip after they were each explained). How different is this to watching video tutorials? Also it was established at the start that just about everyone in the class was doing this out of interest/ non professional reasons, so i really felt like there were no grounds for the lack of attempts/practice given.
Some food was provided which was a nice touch.
I came into class early and was all set up to give this class a splendid review, but the bottom line is: for 3.5 hours I only got one pour (doing a basic heart) and that’s definitely not what I paid/signed up for. And yes, I might have felt inclined not to leave such a review if everyone got the same number of tries, even if it was only 3 pours each. + more

Anyway I came to improve my latte art skills and it was theoretical and less practical ~ used actual milk just twice during 3.5 hrs. So if you're about to learn about the theoretical latte art this is the place for you.
For me it wasn't the best value for money anyway but nice experience.

While this was useful information, it took quite a long time to explain and the instructor tended to repeat the same points multiple times. The workshop is advertised as needing no prior experience, however the first thing the instructor mentioned was that it would have been beneficial if people had attended the "Espresso Workshop" before attending this one.

The workshop is advertised as needing no prior experience, however the first thing the instructor mentioned was that it would have been beneficial if people had attended the "Espresso Workshop" before attending this one.
We practised the techniques with water, which was a good idea as it allowed us to continue practising and adjusting our hand and arm movements (and the floor ended up getting quite wet!). However, after the introduction, explanations and water practise, no one actually got to touch milk until 7.30pm.
The workshop teaches three key designs, considered the building blocks of all latte art. We learnt the first of these designs before having a break (where we were fed some very tasty food!) but there was so little time left after the break that we had to rush through the other two designs. There were 10 students in the workshop, and all up over the 3.5 hours each student only got to attempt pouring with real milk and coffee once.
The instructor was very knowledgeable and skilled and had a warm and friendly approach. He made everyone feel welcomed and safe to just give it a go. The venue was good, although with everyone crowded around one machine I don't think it would be so comfortable with any more than 10 people. Overall the course achieved what I was looking for - to gain some knowledge of latte art so that I can go away and practise on my own. I do think it could benefit from a bit more structure though, to give students more chances to try out what they're learning. + more

His knowledge and tips were well received and enjoyed by all. The venue was very good and the 3 hours we had was well spent. Driving home we were talking about what workshop will we do next with Andy.

Vincent was great! He has certainly done a lot of analyzing of coffee and latte art and it shows in his work and his teaching. I enjoyed learning from him as he has a true passion for it and they are the best people to learn from. The main thing I learnt was what my bad habits are and how to correct them, which is what I wanted to get out of it.

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.

The teacher was amazing and very knowledgeable on all aspects of latte art and showed the class the 3 basic shapes: Heart, Tulip and Rosetta. The lessons were broken down in a very technical way which I found useful for practice and further development. We were trained on cup grip, milk jug grip and alignment, pouring technique like the angle of the cup, speed of pour, placement of pour etc. and milkThe teacher was amazing and very knowledgeable on all aspects of latte art and showed the class the 3 basic shapes: Heart, Tulip and Rosetta.

We were trained on cup grip, milk jug grip and alignment, pouring technique like the angle of the cup, speed of pour, placement of pour etc. and milk steaming techniques.
All materials were provided and were of high quality with a range of milk jug sizes and shapes combined with a high tech commercial coffee machine.
The venue was inside the Roastville Coffee shop itself and it had a very earthy, chilled feel and was very clean with food provided half way through the course.
Value for money is subjective and I would say depends on how passionate you are about latte art. In this class, you're not just given a milk jug for 3 hours and aimlessly playing around but you are step by step trained in all aspects of pouring art and given expert tips from a barista champion and for me is priceless value. + more

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 profilesweI absolutely enjoyed the class as I knew absolutely nothing about coffee tasting.

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. + more

Great value for money. Andy was very knowledgeable and happy to answer questions. Loved his analogies :) Class was kept small which was good as I think it would be quite hard with a big group. I learned a lot!

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!

There was a lot of hands on practice (with water) but it was great to have someone of his calibre show us the techniques. There are a few things that prevented me from giving five stars though. On Classbento it says that class sizes range from 1 - 6 students however we had 15 crowded around 1 machine which was okay when using the water for practicing but our class went 30 minutes overtime due to waiting for everyone to have a turn which actual milk. Also on Classbento it says you receive a gift bag which we did not get. I asked the owner on our way out and he said that it was a mistake. Overall a fun night with a lot of laughs and great company! + more

Andy was very informative and precise in helping us improve our milk frothing and pouring techniques. The classes could have been smaller as we were pressed for time and having more machines handy would have been good.

Very knowledgable teacher Andy, fun class and tea tasting. Would have loved to have more time hands on rather than on history of tea.

The teacher was super knowledgeable but often too quiet and I'd recommend asking lots of questions to get him talking a bit more.
It'd be nice if there was somewhere to put bags, and a bit more general organisation.
