Not everyone can handle a cupping, but it is one of the most authentic ways to understand the characteristics of coffee. A coffee "flavored" small group is a great idea...

Didn't I hear that Reed (sp?) is taking us toward "life groups"? I think part of that must be affinity groups. Therefore..... I told Robin it felt at times like we wre taking "Coffee Communion." Michael L if you think that sounded gross, you should have seen the passerby lady who thought to join us and immediately took a big swig and swallow of the crust of grounds on the first cup we handed her to smell!

Okay, Starbucks coffee is gruesome at the best of times, but this is just gross! BTW, when I go to a wine tasting event, I don't spit, I ask for seconds.... just to make sure I got it right!
