Coffee Tasting at Saxbys

 The Cornell Club Goes to Philly! 

Join us for a special coffee tasting at Saxbys Headquarters in downtown Philadelphia. We'll hear from Saxbys CEO and Founder, Nick Bayer '00 and learn from Sam Brandvein, Dillanos Coffee Education Specialist and Megan Irving, Dillanos Business Development Representative.

Guests will take part in a tasting experience that will require all their senses as they taste Saxby's Signature Blend and a surprise coffee chosen exclusively for this event. Both coffees will feature interactive pairings that will create a heightened tasting experience.
Registration includes remarks from Nick Bayer '00, Sam Brandvein, and Megan Irving, a coffee tasting and brunch.

We are happy to have the Northeast Corridor Office of Alumni Affairs as an event co-sponsor.

About Dillanos + Saxbys:
Dillanos is honored to partner with Saxbys as their official roaster.  Our role is not to just provide Saxbys with the best coffee in the industry, but as a business building partner as well.

The Dillanos and Saxbys teams worked together to develop custom blends that appeal to the broadest coffee audience. In 2015, Dillanos hosted Saxbys on an origin trip to El Salvador to better understand the seed to cup process. There they were able to see first-hand how industry leading farmer Emilio Lopez Diaz and Finca El Manzano create quality and sustainable farming practices.
