Following the success of Cork Coffee Weekend in January, one of the organisers has curated the Cork Coffee Trail. On Saturday March 26th coffee, caffeine addicts are invited to take a tour of some of Cork City’s independent coffee houses and cafes.

On the tour attendees will meet some of Cork’s best baristas, take part in a 3FE cupping session, watch a V-60 demostration, hear talks about the different coffee regions around the world, taste local roasts from Badger & Dodo and The Golden Bean, and enjoy sweet treats along the way.

The morning long tour will be guided by Dermot O’ Sullivan, pastry chef and food blogger at GasMarkSeven, who co-organised Cork Coffee Weekend. From 9.30am to 12.30pm Dermot will impart his knowledge of the ever changing coffee culture in Cork City.

Tickets are €35, and include a bag of locally roasted coffee. Booking is essential, and tickets are on sale on www.eventbrite.ie/e/cork-coffee-trail. For more information email corkcoffeetrail@gmail.com
