Show Buyers the Value Behind Your Coffees
You’ve put care into sourcing and sharing coffees you're proud of. We help you turn your sample sets into guided experiences that fit your buyers’ cupping flow and highlight what makes your coffees stand out.
This helps you:
Support confident buying decisions
Strengthen long-term relationships
Communicate your value clearly and memorably
What Gets in the Way
Most cuppings focus on scoring, with little room for context or storytelling
Buyers need simple ways to stay informed about new arrivals and harvest updates
Pricing premiums are easier to support when buyers understand the work behind each coffee

Bring Your Sourcing Work Forward
You’ve already sourced incredible coffees. We help you design tasting experiences that make that work more visible. This gives your team, wholesale partners, and customers a deeper understanding of what makes your coffees unique.
The Challenge
Your coffees carry real quality, care, and story. The challenge is helping others fully understand that value.
What often gets in the way:
Customers and clients compare offers by price without context
Wholesale clients and staff need simple ways to learn and talk about your coffees
What We Help You Build
We help you create tools that support launches, wholesale relationships, and internal training
Sample sets for wholesale clients with inserts that explain sourcing and quality decisions
Training materials for staff and partners to speak clearly about your coffees
Seasonal tasting experiences to keep clients and customers engaged
Backed by Real Industry Experience
I’ve spent the last decade working across sourcing, quality control, education, and marketing. I’ve selected greens, managed cupping labs, built QC systems, and trained teams to communicate what makes a coffee stand out.
Cherry Love helps you bridge the gap between the work you do and how others experience it.

Use Tasting Experiences to Train Your Team and Engage Your Customers
We help cafes design guided tastings that give your staff the tools to share your coffees with confidence and create memorable, meaningful experiences for your guests.
The Challenge
Your team talks to customers every day, but they may not always feel prepared to explain what makes your coffees special. Without clear tools and training, that value can get lost.
Common needs:
Simple ways for staff to learn and speak about your coffees
Engaging experiences that keep customers curious and loyal
Support for pricing by showing the stories behind the cup
How Tasting Experiences Can Transform Your Cafe
We help you create approachable, educational touchpoints that support your menu, team, and customer base
Staff training tools to build knowledge, palate, and confidence
Quick tasting flights that deepen customer understanding
Guided sessions or weekend cuppings that build community
Seasonal events that give customers a reason to return
Experience You Can Trust
I’ve spent the past decade curating educational experiences in specialty coffee, from sourcing and QC to team training and tasting design. Cherry Love grew from that work, helping people taste and understand what makes great coffee stand out.
Now I bring that same approach to support cafes in creating experiences that grow knowledge, connection, and loyalty.
