Sunday 15 June, noon, The Sapphire Room, Ponsonby Central, Auckland.
It’s been said that our Principal Sponsor in the Aotearoa Cup Tasters Championship ’25 knows a thing or two about coffee—and they certainly do!
A huge thank you to John Burton Ltd for sponsoring the event and sourcing the delicious coffees that will be cupped on the day. We’re stoked to have them back on board!
We’re also excited to share that in 2025, we’ll be doing things a little differently once again. Stay tuned—more details coming soon.
It’s a game of taste.
It’s a game of the mind.
It’s a game of accuracy and speed.
Who will take the title in ’25?
36 Tickets now sold out! / Should we run a waitlist?
