Amor Perfecto Coffee Tasting Workshop

The Amor Perfecto Coffee Tasting Workshop is a two-hour cupping session at Café Amor Perfecto, the roastery credited with bringing specialty coffee to Colombian consumers. It is held in the on-site training lab behind the café at Carrera 4 #66-46 in Chapinero Alto, a residential and dining district in northern Bogotá, Colombia. The operator is Café Amor Perfecto itself, a Bogotá specialty roaster that also runs cafés and barista training. The workshop is guided cupping of several single-origin Colombian coffees, tasted side by side so that differences stand out. The instructor explains how altitude, varietal, processing method and roast profile change the cup, covering the route from farm to roaster to brew. Competition-trained baristas lead a brewing demonstration, showing how method and technique affect flavour, and participants can compare results. The focus is entirely on coffee rather than food, so there is no savoury or sweet meal component, though a small snack may be offered and should be confirmed when booking. The price is approximately COP 142,000 per person (about $45), which covers the tastings, the guided session and the demonstration. Transport is not included, so visitors reach Chapinero Alto by taxi, ride-hailing or bus from the centre. The group is small, and the training-lab setting means sessions are seated and unhurried, with time for questions. Language should be confirmed at booking, as sessions may be offered in English and Spanish. Coffee is naturally plant-based, but visitors sensitive to caffeine should note that cupping involves several tastings in a short period, and plain water is normally available between samples. Milk alternatives are less relevant because cupping is taken black. The workshop suits coffee enthusiasts, home brewers and curious first-timers who want a structured introduction to Colombian specialty coffee, and it pairs well with an afternoon exploring nearby Chapinero restaurants and Zona G.
