Join us for Sensory Skills Foundation just north of Charlotte, NC at Trail Blaze Coffee - https://trailblazecoffee.com/

COURSE OUTLINE

In Sensory Foundations we work with our basic senses to understand how they interact with coffee.

We will use tools to improve aromatic recall and descriptive analysis.

We will explore coffees with varying quality and intensity levels and identify differences.
