Come out to celebrate International Coffee Day 2025 in the best way possible: by sampling different varieties, and learning how to distinguish one from another.
Learn all about the fascinating world of coffee from coffee enthusiast, Rob Fitzgibbon, who last came to the Library in 2017. Enjoy an informal half hour presentation, covering coffee as an agricultural commodity, how it’s grown and processed and how it’s been consumed throughout history. Learn about roasting, aroma, taste and mouthfeel. Rob will then lead participants in a fun interactive exercise in which they try three different coffees and document what they smell and taste, using stickers and a flavor wheel. The event concludes as participants review their shared perceptions of taste and aroma, have a Q & A session and finish the coffee.
This event is made possible through the generous support of The Friends of the Reading Public Library.
