It’s here! Sign-ups are now live for the 2017 (!) Coffee Masters Tournament at the 2017 (!!) London Coffee Festival, happening April 6th-9th in Shoreditch.
What is Coffee Masters? It’s an exciting interdisciplinary coffee battle royale, pitting coffee professionals against each other in a no holds barred test of speed, skill, creativity and determination, all geared around delicious coffee. The competition was created by Allegra Events and DunneFrankowski—you can explore past coverage from throughout the Coffee Masters coverage archives on Sprudge.

- Videos must be a minimum of one minute and a maximum of two minutes in length
- You must present/introduce yourself and your Signature Drink recipe within the video
- You should demonstrate personality, pride, passion and professionalism
- The presentation of your Signature Drink recipe should be clear, informative and creative
- You should clearly demonstrate your knowledge and ability as a professional barista and coffee expert
