On Saturday, December 6, Maglianero, a Burlington coffee shop known for its potent artisanal brews and a scientific approach to crafting them, is taking a break from preparing hot beverages to host a film about them.
Maglianero is sponsoring, at Burlington’s Main Street Landing Film House, a screening of A Film About Coffee, a 2014 documentary that follows the journey of a coffee bean from tree to cup. The film has played all over the world at festivals and independent cinema venues. Check out the trailer below.
All proceeds from the event’s ticket sales will be donated to the Hinesburg-based charitable organization Food 4 Farmers, which is dedicated to bringing sustainable food programs to coffee-producing communities around the world.
Coffee lovers who attend the screening will find sustenance for their taste buds as well as their eyes and ears: coffee tastings from Maglianero and samples from Middlebury Chocolates. The event will also feature a silent auction and a presentation by coffee guru Don Holly.
A Film About Coffee screens Saturday, December 6, 2:30 p.m., at Main Street Landing, 60 Lake Street, Burlington. $15. Tickets at Maglianero, 47 Maple Street, or available here.
