The thrills! The spills! (There were no spills, these are professionals after all.) The Geishas! The Final Round of the 2017 World Brewers Cup saw some of the best baristas from around the globe—three continents to be exact—brewing some of the most sought-after coffees in the world.
Easily one of the best parts of attending the World Brewers Cup in Budapest was the Curtis Brew Bar, where each of the competitors’ coffees was available to the crowd after the completion of their routine. Getting to try six different versions of some of the world’s most expensive brews in short order was coffee geekdom at its most decadent.
But since not everyone was lucky enough to make it to Hungary to try these rare coffees for themselves, we took meticulous notes on each coffee and brewing method that came to the stage on Finals Day, which we are delighted to share with you. Maybe you were lucky enough to snag one of these near-mythical coffees to make at home, or maybe you just want to see how the best in the world approach their craft. Either way, use these recipes in good health and in good coffee.
