Who better to ask for advice on your morning cup of joe than the best taster in Italy, a country famed for its coffee culture?
Francesco Sanapo, a dynamo of energy and enthusiasm, recently won the 2019 Italian Cup Tasting Championship, held by leading Italian trade fair organizer Italian Exhibition Group. This unique competition required competitors to identify each of 24 cups of coffee, distinct in type and origin, in a sequence of eight triplets, using only aroma and taste—all in under eight minutes.
