Description

English: 11:00 AM Spanish: 9:00 am, 3:00 pm Discover the unique flavors of Colombian coffee through a guided tasting. From the moment you arrive at DV Café Especial, we will welcome you to our experience center in the heart of Bogotá, where your journey into the world of single-origin Colombian coffee begins. We'll begin in our sensory laboratory with a guided tasting of two selected varieties. You will learn the step-by-step process used by a professional cupper: how to smell correctly, how to identify aromas, how to recognize sweet, fruity, or chocolatey notes, and how to distinguish a high-quality coffee from one with defects. No prior experience is needed; we will guide you in a clear and approachable way to help you develop your sense of smell and taste. Then we move on to the most exciting part: the tasting of four different coffees, including traditional and exotic varieties, prepared using four extraction methods. You will discover how the brewing method completely transforms the cup experience. As you taste, we'll teach you our four essential steps for making great coffee at home. During the experience, we will share real stories about the coffee's origin in Pitalito, Huila, and explain how to choose and buy specialty coffee wisely. We'll wrap things up with a sweet treat to accompany the tasting, creating a warm, educational, and deeply authentic experience. By the end of the experience, you won't just have tasted coffee—you will have gained an understanding of its culture, its science, and its soul.
