There’s a local coffee brewery here in town, “The Roasterie” that we just learned does free tours on Saturday mornings. Guess where we were Saturday at 9 am?
Tour started with, of course, coffee. Beckham asked to try some.
It wasn’t for him.
SP: “Me too!”
And we have a coffee drinker!
It was 90% milk and sugar
Brian got chosen to demonstrate “cupping.” You have to slurp the coffee out of a spoon really fast to make sure it hits all of your taste buds to test it.
Here Brian is asking the tour guide if he was for real or if he was being set up to be the brunt of a joke!
Slurping!
While Brian thought this was great, Becks and SP did not find it as captivating
But Becks did get Brian’s pin he got for cupping!
It was a really fun tour, but it was too long for kids. This is SP imitating what she was told often:
And I think she wore out of listening to the tour guide:
They gave out the burlap sacks, Brian of course thinks: Sack races with the youth!
It was a really interesting, very informative tour, we recommend it. There are more random pics after the link of the facilities
