Welcome to Barista Magazine’s Humpday Giveaway #77!
Barista Magazine’s weekly trivia contest for fun and prizes!
At the SCAE’s World of Coffee in Rimini, Italy in June, it was big week for Taf Coffee from Athens, Greece. Stefanos Domatiotis multi-time Greek barista champion (and cover feature for the June + July 2013 issue of Barista Magazine) turned his talents to the World Brewers Cup and walked away with the first-place trophy. Meanwhile his fellow TAF barista and 2011 World Latte Champion Christos Loukakis finished third in the World Barista Championship (the highest finish ever for a Greek barista!) But that’s not all, Taw’s owner Yiannis Taloumis was awarded the lifetime achievement award from the Specialty Coffee Association of Europe!
Then in August, Barista Magazine‘s editor, Sarah Allen, had a chance to visit the Taf roastery! It was a terrific trip, and you can read about it here on the BMag blog. So for this week’s Humpday prize we have two Taf t-shirts up for grabs! (Please note, the t-shirts are only available in size L. If they don’t fit you, hopefully they will fit someone you know!) The great news about this week’s prizes are that we can send them anywhere in the world! So no matter where you’re from you’ve got a chance to win!
OK, already! Let’s get to playing! Oh, but first, let’s rundown the rules:
