Questions

Frequently asked questions

How much does a coffee workshop cost in Hong Kong?

There is no single list price — cost depends on group size, programme, venue and delivery language. Tell us the details through our quote form and a reviewed quotation reaches your work inbox within 30 minutes during office hours. NGO, school and government rates are subsidised below our corporate rate.

Can you run the workshop at our venue?

Yes. We bring espresso machines, grinders, milk and everything else. On-site delivery carries a modest transport and setup charge, shown in your quote. We need a table area, access to power and a water source nearby.

Do you teach in English?

Yes — Cantonese, English and Putonghua, all by the same accredited trainer team. English delivery carries a small uplift, shown in your quote. We have delivered English sessions for ERM, ExxonMobil, L’Oréal and BlackRock.

Do participants receive a certificate?

Every participant receives a certificate of participation. For accredited routes we run SCA, City & Guilds, TQUK and LAGS certification with formal examination — we are Hong Kong’s only SCA Premier Training Campus.

Is booking you eligible for ESG or CSR reporting?

Tasse Coffee is a government-recognised social enterprise, and many clients include our engagements in their CSR and ESG reporting. Your booking supports barista training for elderly, SEN, visually impaired and ethnic-minority learners, and we can provide a social impact statement for your reporting.
