An evening with Bennetts
Join us for a specialty coffee education night exploring how coffee is sourced, graded and assessed, how defects are identified, and what makes coffee truly “specialty”.
Discover how coffee is graded, assessed and classified, and what separates everyday coffee from specialty-grade beans.

Georgia
Quality Manager, BENNETTS
Georgia is Bennetts’ Quality Manager and has been a key part of the team for more than 15 years. Across her time in the industry, she has developed extensive experience in coffee quality control, cupping, grading, green coffee evaluation, and tea knowledge, playing an important role in maintaining the standards Bennetts is known for. As a certified Q Grader, she brings an internationally recognised level of sensory and quality assessment expertise to her role.
Georgia works closely with our purchasing team to ensure every coffee we source meets quality expectations, overseeing the approval and rejection of pre-shipment samples and liaising directly with producers when coffees fall outside specification. Her experience also extends beyond the cupping table, having travelled to multiple coffee-producing origins and served as a judge at ASCA Brewers and Barista competitions over several years.
With a deep understanding of quality, sourcing, and the broader coffee supply chain, Georgia brings a wealth of knowledge and practical industry experience to every conversation.
