About this tour

A 90-minute guided tasting of specialty coffees roasted across Valencia and Europe, led by a professional in the city centre. You'll learn how to recognise quality in a cup, explore what local Spanish roasters are doing differently, and taste alongside other coffee enthusiasts. The session includes a 250g bag of coffee to take home, plus water and snacks.

Highlights

  • Taste 4–6 specialty coffees from Valencia roasters and European producers
  • Learn how to identify quality and flavour profiles in any coffee
  • Small group of fellow coffee drinkers; intimate, focused session
  • Professional guide shares insider perspective on Spanish coffee culture
  • Take home 250g bag of specialty coffee from the tasting
  • City centre location with easy public transport access
  • Fully wheelchair accessible venue and all surfaces level

What to expect

You'll arrive at the city centre location and be greeted by the coffee professional. The session opens with an introduction to the coffees on the table — roasts from Valencia, Spain, and across Europe — and a brief explanation of what you're about to taste. Over the next hour you'll work through each coffee, learning to notice aroma, body, acidity, and finish; the guide will talk through the roasting approach and origin story behind each cup.

Towards the end, you'll discuss how to spot quality wherever you travel and ask questions about your own coffee habits. The experience wraps with snacks, water, and your take-home 250g bag. Small group means there's room for real conversation rather than passive listening.

Good to know

This suits anyone who drinks coffee regularly but wants to move beyond guesswork — you don't need prior tasting experience. It's also good for travellers looking to understand local food culture or for a sociable, low-intensity activity. Not suitable if you're pregnant or have cardiovascular concerns, as the tasting involves consumption of caffeine. The venue and all surfaces are wheelchair accessible, and public transport stops are nearby. Inclusions cover coffee, tea, water, snacks, and a coffee bag; nothing extra is typically required. Groups are small (exact number not specified), which keeps the feel intimate. There's no specified peak time, though morning sessions may feel more natural for coffee tasting.
