Coffee “Cupping” Starting 5pm Tonight At Domku

for sig, originally uploaded by Prince of Petworth.

“A coffee cupping is the technique that coffee buyers and roaster use to judge coffees. In some ways, it is a lot like a wine tasting, in that you slurp the coffee, spreading evenly across your tongue and then spit it out. However, rather than brewing the coffee in the traditional sense, it is steeped in small glasses. This not only brings out a wide variety of flavors, but helps to maintain consistency across different coffees. On Thursday, we will be sampling three coffees with distinct histories and trying to put names to the flavors that are exhibited by each.”

Domku, of course, is located on the 800 block of Upshur in Petworth.

Ed. note: Full disclosure, Fresh Off The Roast is an advertiser on PoP. But hell this is a cool event whether they were advertisers or not.

Potomac Harmony is Back! Following a gap year of competing, then virtual rehearsals during the pandemic, followed by the well-earned retirement of our long-term director, a year of a director search, Potomac Harmony hit the regional contest stage in Concord, North Carolina in March for the first time since 2018! It was exhilarating, reaffirming, and rewarding!

The chorus hit all of its goals, the biggest of which was to have fun and sing our best on contest stage — we did both! Because we earned a score over 400 points, our new Director, Allison Lynskey, was awarded the Novice Director award, photo above. Additionally, one of our charter members, Jackie Bottash, was nominated for and honored with the Leadership Excellence award. It was a celebratory weekend!

What’s next? So much! We now look forward to upcoming performances, growing our membership, and expanding our musical product with new arrangements and an education component each week. It’s an exciting time to be part of this ever-growing ensemble!
