Peru Tasting Hour
Overview
Hosted by Cynthia, roastmaster and cupping specialist, and Pavel, V60 pour-over. You sit; they brew. Cups from around Peru — different varieties and processes — land in front of you while you talk altitude, washed vs natural vs honey, and what those words actually taste like. First specialty cup or already deep in coffee: the conversation meets you there. You leave able to read a bag and know what you like.

Syllabus & Timeline
Cynthia & Pavel — Peru is not one coffee
- Cynthia (cupping and roast) and Pavel (V60) open the hour together.
- Peru runs from desert coast to Amazon jungle to peaks above 2,000m — so variety, altitude, and process actually show up in the cup.
- We set that frame before the first sip, whether this is your first specialty coffee or you already know the map.
process & variety side by side
- Pavel brews; you stay seated.
- Cups from different regions, varieties, and processes land in front of you.
- You learn what makes washed coffee distinct from natural and honey — acidity, fruit, cleanliness, funk — and how long versus short fermentation changes flavor.
- Fragrance on the dry grounds, then aroma once the coffee is wet. Taste side by side: sweetness, acidity, body.
your palate, the next bag
- Pick the cup you liked most.
- Together we name why — sweetness, acidity, body — so you leave knowing what your palate leans toward.
- Next time you pick up a coffee bag, variety and process on the label will point you at coffee you actually like.
