Coffee cupping!
$5-10 Suggested donation at the door, but no one will be turned away for lack of funds.
One of Thread's roasters will be traveling to the Lake Kivu region of the Democratic Republic of the Congo at the end of May. Thread will be visiting SOPACDI, an amazing coffee grower's cooperative in the eastern DRC. We love this coffee on it's own and in our Force Blend, and we love working with this coop because they pay a higher price for coffee grown by female farmers!
The trip concludes with the first ever international specialty cupping competition in the DR Congo, Saveurs du Congo! This cupping event is a special occasion for coffee cooperatives from the DRC to get together. Grades from cupping events help farmers get a better price for their coffee!
Proceeds from this fundraiser will be used to cover travel expenses for representatives of each farming organization involved in the event and sponsor their participation in a DRC industry focused cupping workshop led by Beth Ann Caspersen from Equal Exchange.
