Learn the Jewish history of coffee

"Do you love coffee? Do you love history? If the answer to any of those questions for you is "yes" as it is for me, then you don't want to miss this unique event," said Rabbi Yanky Majesky of Chabad North Orlando.

"I know you'll enjoy the secret Jewish history of coffee with the "Caffeinated Rabbi" Moishy Korf."

Participants of the evening will learn the Jewish history, Halachic discussions and Kabbalistic meaning of coffee as well as learn how to start drinking better coffee.

We will have fun comparing tastes of 4 different commercial and specialty coffees as well as experience coffee brewed with seven different methods.

Brooklyn born, Rabbi Moishy Korf, aka The Caffeinated Rabbi, started out drinking instant coffee just to stay awake during his busy Yeshiva days but never had any appreciation for the beverage. All that changed when he visited Colombia and tasted Sello Rojo. It was love at first sip.

Having developed a taste for gourmet coffee, he went on to research what Jewish history and Halachic discussions there are on coffee, as well as sages that were coffee drinkers and the Kabbalistic meanings on coffee.

He seeks to share this passion and knowledge with others by educating them about what it is that makes a good coffee. The event will take place on Tuesday, Jan. 4, 2022, at 7:30 p.m. at Nate's Shul 1701 Markham Woods Rd. Longwood, FL 32779.
