The "Tasting Workshops" series opens, for the first time, in the morning light and proposes a brunch format with specialty coffee and artisanal biscuits, in a space that has become a landmark for lovers of good coffee and cultural events: Negru Zi – coffee & arts.

☕ On Saturday, May 23, from 10:30, we will transform the Negru Zi amphitheater into a brunch space, with specialty coffee, artisanal biscuits, and good stories.

What we'll do at the workshop:

• we will taste single-origin coffees, prepared using several methods, with explanations from Mihai Bulai (Negru Zi) on how the taste is built in the cup.

• we will discover the artisanal biscuits from La Biscuiterie – clean recipes, natural ingredients, no additives, and, in their vegan range, no added sugar.

• we will test "around the world" coffee & biscuit pairings – from fruity notes to chocolate and spices.

• we will indulge, as it's a brunch, with delicious croissants and a glass of sparkling wine.

Everything in an interactive, amphitheater-style format:

• 20 seats in the hall + seats on the stage

• step-by-step tasting, with live explanations and open discussions

• session for questions, impressions, and practical applications

The workshop is for those who want:

• to understand why not all coffee varieties are the same and how to distinguish them in the cup

• to discover how to pair coffee with artisanal biscuits

• to hear the stories of a barista and an artisanal biscuit producer

The evening's hosts:

🍷 Vali Tătar – @The.Winefather, sommelier, educator, and creator of the "Tasting Workshops" series, with experience in culinary pairings and eno-gastronomic presentations

✨ Radana from @Iași.mănâncă, founder of the community, who for years has been bringing the gastronomic stories of the city and the people behind the dishes to the forefront
