[ad_1]
This holiday, between the 12th and 14th of October, Curitiba hosts, for the first time, the Brazilian Brewers Cup Championship, an event that defines the best barista in the country in preparing filtered coffee. Among the competitors are Aline Camila Paes de Farias, Leonardo Moço, Leonardo Pires Araújo and Thais Borsa das Graças.
Held by the Brazilian Specialty Coffee Association (BSCA), the competition brings together 20 baristas from across the country, who use their techniques and skills to extract the best coffee using the filtered and manual (strained) method. Each competitor will have 10 minutes to present the drink, the chosen filtration method and deliver three cups, which will be evaluated by the judges.
Free and open to the public, the championship takes place at the Supernova Factory, in Batel. On Thursday (12) and Friday (13), the disputes start at 2 pm. The grand final, with the six best classified, takes place on Saturday (14) from 3:30 pm. The announcement of the new Brazilian Brewers Cup champion, who will represent the country in the category’s world cup, in April 2024, in Chicago (USA), will be made at 7pm.
“Holding the championship in Curitiba is a recognition of the maturity of the local market for specialty coffees. The expectation is that we will have excellent presentations and baristas competing on one of the most important stages for the Brazilian scene”, comments Vinicius Estrela, executive director of BSCA.
During the three-day event, the Supernova Factory will be open from 10 am and visitors will be able to discover and follow the latest developments from the brands present in the Coffee Factory space. There, tastings and experiences will be held for coffee lovers; lectures on hospitality, coffee and their combinations in gastronomy; in addition to the presence of champion baristas from previous years, who will share their experiences.
