Berlin Coffee Education Experience

Private tour pricing from 49 EUR per person
Group tour available in English
Brilliant tour - a real deconstruction of the coffee experience with a tour guide who clearly loved sharing the wealth of knowledge and contacts he had. The tour started ‘at the end’ and finished at ‘the beginning’ of the coffee cherry’s (yep it’s not a bean at the start) journey to the cup. Uli took us to some unique spots with hosts who welcomed us to their establishments discussing all the intricacies of coffee from their various perspectives: the barista, the roaster, the bean sourcer... and all the while learning loads it never felt like I was at school... needless to say after endless cups of coffee (machine, filter, drip) I was bouncing off walls too! Great time, awesome gang and fabulous way to discover the hidden parts of Berlin...

Description

Part 1
We take a deep look into the coffee business, starting early, we’ll get an exclusive inside into the daily routine of a barista and third wave coffee shop owner in Neukölln. Before the masses arrive we’ll have a cup of speciality coffee paired with a light breakfast bowl. And of course we’ll have a private chat about what’s happening in the Berlin coffee scene right now.

Part 2
After this introduction we dive in deeper, heading to Kreuzkölln for a so called “cupping”, a professional coffee tasting. Our host, coffee shop owner and roaster, will take us to the private roasting room and brew us 3-4 varieties of high quality beans and explain step by step how to select the perfect coffee. You will learn how much there is to taste when drinking coffee. #no milk

Part 3
How are raw coffee beans transferred into the intensively smelling coffee beans? We’ll have a private session with the head roaster digging deep into the roasting process. Beside the roasting business, we will learn about the direct trade of coffee and what this means for farmers, micro roasteries, coffee shops and consumers, like us.

Amazing Coffee Education Tour
We were very happy to see that Fork& Walk offered a special Coffee Education tour during the Berlin Coffee Festival. We thought already we know a lot about coffee, but we really learnt much more on this tour. We got to know different roasteries, had the chance to speak directly to the owners and their insights. We also learnt much about the roasting process, the growers, sustainability and other topics. We had the chance to taste coffee like a professional, and we loved that we got to taste so many different kinds of coffee. Next to the coffees we also had amazing snacks, and desserts and some were even paired taste-wise with the coffees, something that we never experienced before. Thanks Fork & Walk for this unique experience, it was a very well organized and professional tour, and we recommended the tour already to our friends!
