Blind Coffee Roasters recently participated in the annual Golden Bean North America coffee roasting competition. Hailing from Hillsboro, BCR emerged as the highest-ranking Oregon participant. We entered nine different coffees in four different categories and received nine medals in total. The cumulative points earned by Blind Coffee Roasters placed them at the ninth position overall.
“We had a GREAT day,” said Tim, head roaster and co-owner of Blind Coffee Roasters. He further mentioned that their associate roasters, Sharayah Bodnar and Bowie Carns, each received three medals, making it a fantastic competition for their team.
