Welcome to Corica's showroom for an exciting workshop on roasting! Harold or a member of his team will guide you all along.Â
You will first be introduced to a complete aromatic panel of coffees while being explained what influences the taste and what makes them special (processes used by producers, type of plant, roasting, extraction method, infusion...).Â
Then, you will participate in cupping. This is a tasting method designed to evaluate the coffees as objectively as possible. You will experiment with espresso or slow coffee.
At the end of the workshop, you will leave with a coffee bag and beautiful memories!
Workshop location
The workshop is located in the suburbs near Brussels.
This place is accessible to people with reduced mobility.
Harold has two great passions in life: mechanics and cooking.
Her mother is an outstanding cook, with whom he has always enjoyed spending time behind the stove. It is with her that he first developed his palate and his knowledge in the field.Â
Today, he continues to do so through his work as a coffee roaster and through his contact with his clients and friends in the HoReCa (hotel, restaurant and cafe business).Â
His mechanical skills are a valuable asset that he regularly uses to understand and operate all the machinery required to roast, grind and extract coffee.
He bought CORICA in 2011 and learned the basics of his trade from the previous roaster. This Brussels-based SME has been around for a long time and Harold is very happy to continue to develop it, both in terms of the coffees selected (they also have an importer status) and the technologies employed.
This beautiful craft is constantly evolving and offers a rewarding complexity to any curious mind!
Very nice experience! We had learnt a lot on coffee and the different brewing methods. The host was very welcoming and kind with us. We loved the all the coffees and the their store.

L'atelier était très intéressant et l'artisan qui nous l'a proposé est particulièrement sympathique et très compétent. On sent que l'on a affaire à de vrais passionnés qui connaissent très bien l'univers du café !
