Taiwan Cup of Excellence 2025 | Cupping Event

We’re excited to once again bring the Cup of Excellence to our cupping table—an event we've proudly supported and hosted for years.

This time, we're diving into something new: Taiwan. It’s our first time hosting the Taiwan edition, and honestly, we were too curious not to try it. We hope you’ll be just as excited as we are!
