This live, candid panel will be hosted by BGA Executive Council member Lorenzo Perkins, himself a longtime coffee competitor and director of science and education at Cuvee Coffee.

Licata and McCarthy by clicking this here link – http://www.youtube.com/SCAACOFFEE – starting at 12pm sharp PST on Wednesday, June 12th (tomorrow for most parts of the world).

And how *does* it feel, to journey to the bottom of the earth and bring home not one, but TWO world championship titles? You can ask them all this and more, live on YouTube.
