"COFFEE ON THE BRAIN"

presented by Kauai Coffee's Susan Gray

Description: This presentation will focus on our five senses as we prepare three different Kauai Coffees in three different ways. Hands on experience as farmers; Seeing coffee cherries up close; Listening for the crack of roasting; the Smell when its ground, and of course the Taste of good coffee. Each of our 5 senses will be covered as we watch the different ways to prepare coffee and then taste the results.
