Baristas Compete
For baristas around the world there is no event more important than the World Barista Competition. In order to qualify for entry into the WBC you must first win your national title. Here in the States we go through a series of regional competitions (like this one) to determine who will compete on a national level at the USBC.
The 10th and final regional competition kicks off today in Chicago, Illinois. Hosted by Coffee Masters, the Great Lakes Regional Barista Competition (GLRBC) is taking place in conjunction with CoffeeFest. Also happening this weekend in Chicago is the Millrock Latte Art Competition. If this particular event sounds familiar, it may be because you read about the 2008 Millrock champion here, on our blog.
Chicago is definitely the place to be this weekend. To all the competitors, we wish you the very best. Hopefully we'll see you all at the USBC in March.
