(Con’t from yesterday’s reel) All 133 species from the Coffea genus could go extinct in some of our lifetimes. 60% are critically endangered. Some models show 99% of wild diversity of Arabica could be gone. Want to know why? Want to taste species you will likely never encounter again?
Learn why, and why Arabica is the most vulnerable coffee species of them all at our
@worldofcoffeeusa workshop and extremely rare tasting - alongside LW co-founder Leon and San Diego coffee veterans and consultant
@adriuri
We will explore and taste 8 of the 133 Coffea species (not varieties) including Coffea stenophylla, Eugenioides, Wightiana, Racemosa. Don’t know them? Look them up. They are not to miss.
Detail:
Learn what’s behind coffee’s endangered status - potentially going extinct in some of our lifetimes, and some of what the world of coffee is doing about it. Don’t miss what might be a once in a lifetime chance to taste a couple of species such as the protected Coffea stenophylla, Wightiana, Eugenioides, and Racemosa. And taste Arabicas innovating and adapting to survive into the future.
