The Good Food Awards are taking place this weekend in San Francisco!
The Good Food Awards celebrate the kind of food we all want to eat: tasty, authentic and responsibly produced. We grant awards to outstanding American food producers and the farmers who provide their ingredients.
Coffee luminaries Andrew Barnett, Mette-Marie Hansen, Eileen Hassi, Brent Fortune and Tonx have all worked together to prepare the coffee portion of this weekend’s Good Food Awards. They’ve lined up an all-star team of judges to cup and score over 160 amazing coffees. Final honors will go to three winning coffees from five competing regions. It’s the perfect time of year to showcase unstoppable Kenyan coffees, and Sprudge is officially jealous of those of you working the table this weekend. T
