Become a Coffee Judge in Canada

Help crown Canada's best specialty coffee. Blind tastings, six coffees, top three ranking. Sixty minutes of your time, and you keep every bag.

What you're signing up for

The Short Version

As a judge, you'll receive 6 blind-labeled coffees (40g each), brew them with your preferred method at home, and rank your top three. The whole session takes about 60 minutes.

Your rankings directly determine the winners. No industry panel, no gatekeeping โ€” just real coffee drinkers deciding what tastes best.

Before applying, review the full judging guide so you know what to expect.
