Congratulations to the new Irish National Coffee Cupping Champion

The Irish National Coffee Cupping Championships is facilitated by the Irish Chapter of the SCAE (Speciality Coffee Association of Europe). This year’s competition was sponsored by Bewley’s.

Bernard qualified from the very competitive heats to the Final and managed to identify 7 out of 8 of the coffees presented to him in front of a large audience. He will go forward to represent Ireland at the World Coffee Cupping Championships in Cologne Germany next June.
