The competition ended with a demonstration by Taiwan’s Li Ya-ting (李雅婷) of Taipei’s Orsir Coffee (歐舍咖啡), who took top honors in the inaugural World Siphonist Championship held in Japan last month, a competition that tests the brewing of coffee using a siphon device rather than an espresso machine.
For Chou, the ultimate beneficiary of this competition is the consumer. “It encourages a higher level of professionalism in the industry, and this benefits everybody,” he said.
