This activity is the result of a cooperative coalition between CQI, Bolliger and Company, and CQI Instructors (that’s us, among others), and is hosted by various Thai governmental entities.

The purpose of this workshop is to provide coffee producers with a basic understanding of the way their coffee tastes and how to evaluate their own coffee. A six-day workshop will provide participants with an Introduction of Coffee Cupping, Flavors, Aromas, and using the SCA Cupping Form. Participants in the workshop will be able to taste coffee from a variety of countries producing coffee around the world and gain knowledge that will assist them in their daily work on the farm.
