What to expect at the festival
The Swiss Coffee Festival is Switzerland's largest coffee fair: at more than 70 stands, roasters, coffee machine manufacturers and specialists in accessories and water treatment show what they are currently working on. Tasting is free at every stand. So you can drink your way through Switzerland's roasters and compare how differently coffee can taste.
Alongside, the finals of the Swiss Coffee Championships take place in the disciplines Barista, Brewers Cup, Cup Tasters, Latte Art and Coffee in Good Spirits. The ranking of the Swiss roasting championship is announced as well. The festival is organized by SCA Switzerland, the Swiss chapter of the Specialty Coffee Association.
Beanwatch at stand 26
Beanwatch is a small coffee roastery from Horgen on Lake Zurich. At stand 26 you can taste our coffees and talk to us directly about where the beans come from and how to brew them at home.
Have you already ordered from us? Then come and say hello. We're curious to hear how you like your beans.
