Catch Us At Glasgow Coffee Festival

  • 3 min read

It's the most wonderful time of the year......no not that one.......we're talking about Glasgow Coffee Festival! In case you've been in hibernation for the past 10 years, we've been throwing Scotland's biggest coffee part for a loooonnnnggg time now! We can't believe it's been 10 years already! As always we'll be there to bring you the tastiest coffee we have to offer alongside a few surprises! Read on to find out what we're up to across the full weekend of GCF 2024!

Awake Your Senses: Sensory Experience

Ever wondered how we profile our coffee for it's ultimate flavour balance and identify tasting notes? Maybe you've always wanted to have a go at doing it yourself! Well come along to our booth to be immersed in a sensory journey!  Experience three of our coffees, broken down into sensory flavour profiles, calibrate your olfactory with us and identify your own taste notes! Remember, there is no wrong answer! Taste is subjective (until you've calibrated!) and this is going to be a fun experience!

All day Saturday & Sunday on the Dear Green stand!

Try Our New Gesha

We obviously couldn't come to GCF without bringing along an extra special exclusive coffee! This year we worked with Forest Coffee to source an incredible Gesha from the world famous El Vergel in Tolima, Colombia. Processed using the experimental Carbonic Maceration, this coffee scored a massive 88 specialty points! We'll be serving this one-of-a-kind coffee all weekend and will also have beans available for you to brew at home!

All day Saturday & Sunday on the Dear Green stand!
