An exceptional six-day journey into coffee quality.

From 5th to 10th May, join us in Dublin for the SCA Q Grader Course — six days of intense yet enjoyable learning, created for coffee professionals who are ready to sharpen their sensory abilities and operate at a higher level.

From technical analysis and green grading to cupping, sensory calibration, triangulations, and olfactory skills, every part of the course is designed to build accuracy, confidence, and professional depth.

Led by .giriada of Coffee Laboratory, one of Europe’s most experienced Q Instructors, with a track record of training hundreds of Q Graders, several national Cup Tasters Champions, and one World Cup Tasters Champion.

For those who take coffee seriously, this is a rare opportunity to learn in a setting where excellence, precision, and passion come together.

No roses. No wine. Just triangulation and slurping.

Cup Tasters Competition day! 🏆
Gabi, you've got this. Bring it home! ⚽☕💪

Sensory Skills Intermediate this weekend was something special.

Two full days of calibration, triangulations, aroma recognition, red light focus sessions, serious note-taking and even more serious discussions. Watching everyone move from uncertainty to confident, structured descriptions is always my favourite part. That moment when flavour stops being “nice” or “strong” and becomes precise, shared language, that’s where the magic happens.

Huge respect to this group for the focus, curiosity and willingness to challenge their own perceptions. Sensory work is not about having a “good palate”. It’s about training attention, building memory, and learning to doubt yourself productively.

Proud of you all. Now go taste everything differently.
