What a way to round off this run of espresso events! Taste of Canada was an awesome evening, as always made special by the coffees the roasters sent.
Frustratingly the coffee from Discovery fell victim to our postal service (do you see a theme across these events!).
Onto the evening: This was probably our busiest event to date, the room got pretty hot and so we opened the main door to let a little summer inside.
I pulled a lot of shots, and I think I was pretty happy with most of them. The standard of coffees across these events has been insanely high which means we have a very demanding audience. I think they all left very happy.
As always at the end voting for favourites was somewhat split – which is no bad thing! What made me very relieved was that the crowd’s descriptions pretty much matched what the roasters themselves described. Except for ‘puppies.’ Once again I really want to know who wrote that on the board!
We do always ask participating roasters if they fancy making a video, and occasionally they do and this time we have an awesome one for you:
49th Parallel Coffee Roasters – Epic Espresso
Thanks for all at 49th Parallel Roasters for both the video and the amazing coffee, and thank you to Transcend Coffee, JJ Bean, Origins and Discovery for taking part!

This is just a guess as I didn’t attend the event but Im pretty sure you can find the puppy culprit on TMC.

Awesome night guys. Been curious about the “puppies” comment myself. Have a friend who is moving to Canada next month to open up a coffee shop or two. He is planning to use 49th parallel. Can’t go too far wrong with that I reckon. Look forward to the next gathering.
