Cup of Excellence is the highest award that a quality coffee can gets.
The Cup of Excellence is managed by Alliance for Coffee Excellence (ACE), a non-profit organization based in the USA that works in cooperation with coffee organizations to develop programs and strategies aimed at improving the quality of coffee by linking coffee roasters with growers.
The level of control that a cup has to undergo is unmatched anywhere in the coffee world. Cup of Excellence’s winners are tested at least 5 times (the ‘Top 10’ is again tested) during the competition that lasts three weeks. During this selection process, thousands of cups are tasted and evaluated based on their exemplary features. The prices received on acution by these coffees have beaten every records; it demonstrate that there is a great demand for these exceptional coffee of identified origin. Caffè Pascucci participates for several years to the auctions and buys precious winning lots of Cup of Excellence coffees.
