    I have always loved Starbucks coffee and wanted to learn more about the roasting process. The tour we took was the roasting and tasting tour. The guide was amazing and I learned so much. I highly recommend taking any tour at the reserve roastery.

    This was such a treat - Chris and Jordan, our Roasters, were very friendly and knowledgeable. It was enjoyable to gain insight into how the coffee is roasted and how the systems operate. Sitting down for the coffee tasting with Chris was a great way to end the experience.

    The experience with Anna and Tracey was super dope (aka really good). They were really sweet and nice. Even explained the history of the expresso martini!! For a history person, this was really cool. Spend the money and take the experience especially if you go with a bunch of people. You will be lit! Hahaha. Definitely worth it.
