Welcome!

Students in two sections of The Secret Life of Coffee have created this virtual coffee tasting as a culminating activity in their second-year seminar. We welcome you to enjoy this event, the culmination of a semester spent learning with each other at a distance through books, films, Zoom, Blackboard, and Flipgrid.

Each student has prepared a presentation related to coffee in a single country: not just what is IN the cup, but what is BEHIND the cup. In some of these presentations, you will hear the student voices; in others you will only see the images and words with which they tell stories of coffeelands and coffee people from the wide girth of earth's coffee belt.
