CUPPING CLUB : Mexico! with Raw Material

  • Curve Coffee - Cafe & Store 12 The Centre Margate, England, CT9 1JG United Kingdom (map)

Join us for an evening of guided coffee tasting. This one is a special edition with spotlight on Mexico and special guest - Jessie May Peters from our importing partner Raw Material!

Jessie will share a presentation about Mexican coffee production, particularly in the Oaxaca region where growers we purchase coffee are based, talk about some of the main challenges they face and opportunities speciality coffee can bring. We will also be virtually joined by Thomas Pingen from Red Beetle Coffee Lab - exporter partner in Mexico sharing more about the wonderful work they do with the producing communities. And finally we will taste a table full of Mexican coffee delights from community lots through traditional micro-lots all the way to special preperation and rare variety selections. It’s sooo much fun!

All level of experience are welcome and it is a free event but please let us know you’re coming.

We cannot wait to see you there!

We are passionate about sharing what we do with our community of coffee lovers and are excited to resume hosting regular open cuppings - coffee tastings - in our Margate cafe. Happening roughly once a month, we prepare a guided cupping of our current (sometimes upcoming) offerings and share stories behind the coffees and their producers. In our usual vibe, we enjoy a drink or two after.

Our cuppings are open to all, no experience necessary. The event is free of charge and drinks are on us but if you’re able to, we suggest making a small donation (£5-10) to our favourite Margate grassroots project - Dane Valley Woods - turning a former waste site into a thriving woodland for all to enjoy. You can make your contribution here.

The event is free but please let us know you’re coming by registering via the link below:

We look forward to seeing you there!
