Coffee Cupping Experience in Altadena, CA
Guided coffee cupping experience in Altadena, CA. $15/person, 2 hours, led by Matthew Jackson at The Nest. Taste the full UCR lineup in professional cupping format.
A cupping is how coffee professionals taste and evaluate coffee — every cup set up the same way, brewed the same way, tasted side by side. It's the clearest way to understand what you're actually tasting in a coffee and why different origins and processes taste the way they do.
UCR's cupping experience brings that format to anyone curious enough to show up. Led by Matthew Jackson at The Nest (3021 Lincoln Ave., Altadena), you'll taste the full UCR lineup with enough context to actually understand what you're experiencing.

- Guided tasting of all Unincorporated Coffee Roasters coffees
