SCSC members, your first name is your access code :) Inspired by the Iron Tongue and 'Young' the 2023 World Cup Tasters Champion, our throwdown format will consist of three rounds.
The first round is all about teamwork, you will be paired and work together to identity three identical coffees for each pair of three in 3 minutes. The top 4 ranking teams will advance to the next round.
The second round (8 competitors) will be on to individual triangulation, 6 sets, 6 minutes, identifying the odd one out of each set exhibiting accuracy and speed
The final round, the top 4 competitors will again complete individual triangulation, only this time 8 sets, 8 minutes.
