The Rocks Aroma Festival 2013
Get your coffee fix plus some at The Rocks' annual fair day of cupping, pour-over and more.
Overview
"Coffee's the best." A sentence often uttered by any sane individual. So if you are one of those who appreciate cups of happiness, then perhaps The Rocks 16th annual Aroma festival on Sunday, 21 July, is an event to check out.
Officially the entire month of July is being dedicated to coffee, as The Rocks cafes and baristas go cup to cup in a public vote to be crowned as the best and the week leading up hosts an array of activities. Coffee makers will display the art of coffee to the general public, who can warm up with $2 coffee samples. Over at the Overseas Passenger Terminal Forecourt watch as artistic baristas create a mosaic out of 8000 brewed cups of coffee their aim, to create the face of somebody famous.
The day's offer ranges vastly from Reuben Hills holding a cupping session that focuses on regional coffee differences to workshops on how to make pour-over coffee using the V60. As well, the festival now also includes other interesting workshops learn from professional chocolate makers or discover the ancient brewing techniques of the Ottoman Empire.
So extend your coffee knowledge, hang with professionals and drink lotsa coffee.
