- Who it's for
- Coffee-curious people with no prior training; adults and young people who want to learn to taste
In one hour, a Nomad barista explains what makes a coffee specialty grade, how a cupping is done, which is the professional tasting of coffee, and what the theme of the day is. Then the whole group tastes several specialty coffees from different origins, processes and regions at the same time, paying attention to appearance, aroma and flavour. It ends with a practical exercise. It takes place at Cal Nomad, the brand's roastery in Poblenou.
One Friday a month, at five in the afternoon
The workshop is called Fast Tast and is repeated one Friday a month, from 17:00 to 18:00. The published dates run from 13 November 2026 to 17 December 2027, with a break in August. It costs €30 and is given in Spanish. It needs a minimum of ten people: if that is not reached, they offer you another date or refund the amount. Be on time: there are five minutes' grace and after fifteen you cannot enter. If you cancel with less than fifteen days' notice you get half back, and with less than 48 hours, nothing.
To Carrer del Marroc
Cal Nomad is at Carrer del Marroc, 160, in Provençals del Poblenou. The nearest stop is Selva de Mar, on line 4, about ten minutes' walk. Buy your place in Nomad's online shop: you choose the date and it is reserved when you pay. For questions, email [email protected].
Tips
