Lunch & Coffee Break

Everything is Cold

What are some of the cold coffee options at the forefront of broadening coffee’s consumer base? This sensory experience, a blind tasting of cold coffee options prepared in multiple different ways, was inspired by Cheryl Hung’s plenary talk and a seminar covering all the learnings of the Coffee Science Foundation's multi-year research project on cold brew with Professor Bill Ristenpart, Julia Leach, and Peter Giuliano.

What You Drink = Who You Are

Inspired by plenary talks from Andrea Hernández and Bill Durrant, this sensory experience explores the increasing diversity of consumer-packaged goods and how products are often used to show (or tell) people who we are by virtue of what we consume.
