Cup Of Excellence

What is the Cup of Excellence? The Cup of Excellence is basically the most distinguished award given to top notch coffee. Only the best of the best is awarded this prestigious title. A rigorous competition determines which coffee will receive the prize. The coffee comes from many different countries, but only very few are awarded the title of excellence. "Coffees of this exemplary quality are very rare. These coffees are perfectly ripe, carefully picked with well developed body, pleasant aroma and a lively sweetness that only extremely high quality specialty coffees contain. Each winning coffee has its own flavor signature from the earth where it grows and all have been handcrafted in such a way as to enhance these unique characteristics" (cupofexcellence.org).
