COMPANY VISIT – “LEARN & TASTE”

Company Visit is an event organized by BSSC’s Public Relation division. This is the first time that BSSC held a partnership event outside of BINUS Square. Through this, we hope to build good relation with Starbucks!

At Central Park’s Starbucks, we’ve learnt how to make coffee and taste them. We were taught how to identify the different smell of signature coffees. This event was held on Wednesday, May 30th, 2018 and Tuesday, June 5th, 2018. There were 10 participants on the first day and 8 participants in Day 2. This event is divided to 3 sections. The first session is the coffee tasting session, the second session is making coffee and the third session is a question and answer session about coffee and Starbucks.

In the first session, participants were explained about coffee beans used and the technique of processing the coffee beans. Then, the Starbucks barista will demonstrate coffee brewing to the participants. Coffee beans used in Sumatra coffee and Kenyan coffee beans. In the second session participants will try to decorate the Frappuccino coffee they have ordered with whipped cream and caramel sauce. Participants who decorate the best, will get a Starbucks card worth 100K IDR that can be used to buy Starbucks products.

In the Q&A session, participants were very enthusiastic. They asked about coffee, Starbucks, and the experience of being a barista. At the end of the event, it is closed by taking a picture together. We hope that in the future, we can do another partnership with Starbucks!
