CAFÉ CULTURE // CULTURE OF SHARING

CAFÉ KITSUNÉ VERTBOIS WORKSHOPS

Café Kitsuné Vertbois is the only Café Kitsuné address in Europe to possess its own roasting atelier. From June 2021, it will also be the only one in the world to offer themed workshops dedicated to coffee culture, open to both connoisseurs and amateurs. The greatest passions are those that are shared… The launch of the Café Kitsuné Vertbois Coffee Workshops today makes perfect sense.

CAFÉ KITSUNÉ VERTBOIS
WORKSHOPS - RESERVATION

Departure is imminent from the beginning of June, every Saturday, with a journey in 4 stages (to be organised according to participants’ desires) to discover the fascinating world of speciality coffee. The Workshops are limited to 3, 4 or 6 people, for a completely personalized experience.

All facets of speciality coffees are covered, from cultivation to transformation through the magic of roasting, and to the extraction of coffee in espresso as well as in the gentle ethods. Throughout these 4 workshops, the idea is for you to become a true connoisseur, to share and discover which style of coffee you like best. All this within the welcoming atmosphere of the Café Kitsuné Vertbois.

Workshop #4
From espresso to cappuccino

Enough dreaming about pretty cups of latte art, it’s time to get down to business. This time, the focus is on espresso: theoretical basics, the art of extraction, but also tips on choosing speciality coffees and the best machines available on the market. An introduction to latte art reviews the professional gestures for making a milk foam, classic or vegetarian, for assembling it with the espresso and for drawing on the surface… A great moment of pride in perspective.
