Weekenders Coffee Cupping with Market Lane

Weekenders are a specialty coffee roaster from Kyoto, Japan, visiting as part of the Coffee Weekend event. After first opening their doors in 2005, they started roasting their own coffee in 2011.

Owner Kaneko Masahiro is dedicated to sourcing and roasting high quality coffee for Weekenders's customers.

Every day, I’m still learning. Coffee isn’t something you master. It’s something you live alongside.

Cupping is a system of tasting and evaluating coffee that is used throughout the entire supply chain. For customers and newcomers, cupping is a great way to compare coffees side by side, and to begin to develop your palate. When coffees are experienced comparatively, their different flavour profiles emerge. Over time you can identify a coffee's origin just by its taste, and you will know what we mean when we talk about a coffee's sweetness, acidity, or body.

This casual tasting session is suitable for anyone who’s interested in learning a little bit more about coffee - particularly the Japanese coffee scene. So join us at Market Lane as we host Weekenders Coffee for a unique opportunity to privately cup and discuss coffee from one of Japan's leading coffee roasters.
