Double victory at the Barista Open 2020

And the winners are… C’alma Specialty Coffee Room and barista Nuno Carreira

For the 3rd time, Fiamma’s barista competition took place right next to the production lines of the factory. This edition introduced new format: a competition between coffee shops, where a jury of coffee experts evaluated the performance of a team, from their interaction as a team to their creativity and quality of service and products.  The winning duo were the baristas of C’alma Specialty Coffee Room from Oporto. Nuno Carreira (Quinta da Freira, Moita) won the individual competition that follows the official SCA championship rules, and was created as a training opportunity for baristas, in preparation for the big stage. All competitions used the ASTROLAB model, Fiamma’s top machine that conveniently went into competition mode. It is expected that this same competitive spirit will be taken to the Portuguese Barista Championship 2020, an event sponsored by Fiamma.
