Starbucks has recently unveiled an array of immersive coffee experiences at its Reserve Roasteries located in Chicago, Seattle and New York City, including the Oleato Tasting Experience, the Coffee Lab: A Journey of the Senses — and the highly anticipated Art of the Espresso Martini.

Led by skilled Starbucks mixologists, participants of The Art of the Espresso Martini experience will master the creation of a signature Starbucks Reserve Espresso Martini while also enjoying an espresso martini flight accompanied by Princi bites, Food & Wine reported.

Meanwhile, the Oleato Tasting Experience offers a deeper appreciation for olive oil-infused beverages. Participants will sample a range of infused drinks, including the Oleato Deconstructed, Oleato Iced Cortado, Oleato Golden Foam and either the Cold Brew or Oleato Golden Foam Espresso Martini.

Coffee connoisseurs seeking a deeper understanding of flavor profiles will be captivated by the Coffee Lab: A Journey of the Senses. This experience guides participants through an exploration of identifying distinct flavors and aromas in Starbucks Reserve roasts via a side-by-side tasting, per the report.

Each experience lasts approximately an hour and is offered daily. Pricing varies, with the Art of the Espresso Martini experience priced at $95 per person. Secure your spot by visiting starbucksreserve.com.
