The newly launched training center aims to teach baristas on perfecting the art of Espresso, since it's at the heart of every single cup of coffee. We aim to achieve this by having skilled trainers who will demonstrate the art of coffee preparation in order to preserve the product's quality both during preparation and consumption, whether at home or away. Similar to our other training centers, the Delhi Center will be open to baristas, bartenders, and students of coffee from across the country.”
