“Best Cup of Coffee in Prince Albert” Competition

-Zelia Mullins-

On the 15th December 2006 the Tourism Office hosted the “Best Cup of Coffee in PrinceAlbert” competition at Koggel-mander.
All members, who make coffee for tourists and visitors on a regular basis, were invited to participate. Entries were dropped off at 10:00 in a flask with no milk and sugar added, which would certainly have meant immediate disqualification.

All flasks were numbered so that the judges had no idea whose coffee they were tasting. At 11:00 the judges, André & Linda Jaquet, Donald Lamont (Swartberg Hotel) and Iaine Harper (news24.com) commenced with the job at hand.
By 12:00 the tasting was over and the winners were announced. Richard & Regina Billiet of Saxe-Coburg Lodge walked off with the 1st prize of two bottles of red wine and two bottles of white wine.

The second prize went to the Swartberg Hotel.

Congratulations! A fun event was enjoyed by all.
