Coffee Cupping For Dinner Par

A standard coffee cupping procedure involves deeply sniffing the coffee, then loudly slurping the coffee so it spreads to the back of the tongue. The coffee taster attempts to measure aspects of the coffee’s taste, specifically the body (the texture or mouthfeel, such as oiliness), sweetness, acidity (a sharp and tangy feeling, like when biting into an orange), flavor (the characters in the cup), and aftertaste.

1. At the end of dinner, set up a section for Coffee Cupping in 5 oz glasses to measure in 2 teaspoons.

2. Provide a variety of different Coffee cupping samples, ideally three different varieties of roasted coffee.

3. Have guests observe fragrance.

4. Next have guests observe aroma.

5. After the guests have observed fragrance and aroma let them observe taste last.

6. When done have guests document their observations.

7. Select a Coffee  Cupping observation winner. The guest who offered the most insight should receive a special Coffee favor gift to take home.
