New Zealand Cup Tasters Championship 2023

Come along and see 36 of the best tasters in NZ.

The winner of this championship will earn the honour of representing New Zealand at the highly anticipated World Cup Taster’s Championship in 2024 in Chicago, USA next April.

The New Zealand Cup Tasters Championship celebrates the art and precision of professional coffee cuppers, who showcase their speed, skill, and accuracy in distinguishing the taste profiles of specialty coffees. With each cup offering distinctive flavours and characteristics from around the world, cuppers rely on their refined senses of smell and taste, unwavering attention, and extensive experience to identify the odd cup among a set of three in each triangle.
