El Diablo is providing empanadas and beer, too ”how generous and nice is that? And competitors can look forward to great prizes from Bonavita, including immersion droppers and a variable temperature kettle, and W. Wright Silver Co., who will provide the winner with a custom engraved cupping spoon.
The last Northwest Cup Tasters League competition was held at Morsel last November, and it was super fun. Tomorrow’s event is sure to be just as rad!
