Thanks KK!

I have not paid attention in the past -- so, as a noob, your commentary will be particularly welcome [read: tell us what we are watching and what the good/bad subtleties are].

How much crazy fun is this for me?!?! World Cup AND WBC 2010 in the SAME week!?!? My head might explode from sheer joy.

The local competitors you should be cheering for

United States
Barista Champion from United States Barista Championship, 18th of April 2010
Michael Phillips www.worldbaristachampionship.com/wordpress/wp-content/uploads/2009/09/MichaelPhillips.jpg

Originally from Michigan, I began working for Intelligentsia Coffee & Tea four years ago packing coffee bags on the production floor. With the opportunity for a little training with a colleague, I decided to compete in the Great Lakes regional barista competition and placed 4th despite no experience behind the bar. 5 years later, I am the Assistant Director of Education at Intelligentsia Coffee & Tea, have won the United States Barista Competition two years in a row and placed third last year in Atlanta?s competition.



Canada
Barista Champion from Canadian Barista Championship, 15th of October 2009
Kyle Straw www.worldbaristachampionship.com/wordpress/wp-content/uploads/2009/09/KyleStraw.jpg

I?m a general manager and trainer for Caffe Artigiano in
Vancouver, Canada.


I will of course be cheering for the Australian contestant

This has been some great stuff. (most of the time). It is great to see some baristas with a working knowledge of the actual farming and processing that elads to their final product.

What is your signiture drink?

Mine is a layed shot that brings the best of vietnemese style coffee perfectly fused with classic cappuccino traditions - with a finishing hint of toasted almonds.

Update

Australia won the best coffee nation title as it's based on the ranking of all 5 competitions.

1] 3rd in the barista comp
2] 2nd in the latte art comp
3] 6th in the cup tasting comp
4] 4th in the good spirits comp
5] 12th in the Cezve/Ibrik (turkish coffee) comp

So overall Australia finished as top of all nations that entered a competitor in each comp.


Until next time I bid all coffee enthusiasts a fond farewell and may your cup never run dry ThumbsUp
