The time has come to crown three new South African Coffee Champions. The Barista Champion and Cup Tasting Champion will be heading to Athens, Greece in June to represent SCASA and South Africa. Spectators are welcome and we hope to see you all there!
The new Board of Directors have a solid plan and are going to put on a great Finals day, they invite you to join them in celebrating a new era.
If you would like to get involved in a Sponsorship capacity, please get in touch with them. They need a lot of support to get the Champions to the World competitions and to kick start the next cycle of Competitions. There are lots of opportunities, you can view them here!
They are working a new website, but in the meantime you can contact them directly here: info@scasa.coffee
