International Coffee Day Contest - WINNERS ANNOUNCEMENT
Before we get on with our regular Grind report, we've got a special announcement to make. That's right, the winners of our International Coffee Day contest are here.
We enjoyed reading all of your wonderful adventures during and around International Coffee Day (October 1st). Many of you wrote wonderful, heartfelt, moving posts about your relationship with coffee, as well as the kind people behind its production. Some of you were brave and interacted with strangers, whether it was handing them a hand-written note or offering to buy them a cup of coffee!
And much as we've loved reading your personal take on this year's official ICO theme of "collaboration", we have reached the finish line for our International Coffee Day contest. Which means...
... It's time to announce the winners (and deal out some HIVE)!
1st Place: Coffee with strangers
✨"In the most natural way the lady told me that the main reason for asking for bread was not economic, she sat every afternoon on the sidewalk of the bakery to feel company. And she would entertain herself by asking for bread and watching the answers each person gave. " @irvinc
Congratulations, @irvinc! The grand sum of 25 HIVE has been sent on its way and should be in your wallet. :)
2nd Place: The Pleasant Aroma and Flavor of Coffee | International Coffee Day [Eng-Esp]
✨"Do you seek refuge in coffee? Yes, because it is, in my opinion, the beverage with the most attributes and goodness in the world. It is the beverage that has the most significance in the life of human beings. I have no idea how many countries enjoy this delicious beverage but I know that there are many of us." @belkisa758
Congratulations, @belkisa758! The grand sum of 15 HIVE has been sent on its way and should be in your wallet. :)
While we would've liked to see more entries, we were very grateful to everyone who wrote in honor of International Coffee Day! We look forward to hosting again next year. Until then, let's get back to some awesome coffee posts.
Coffee, family and good conversation.
✨"After the tour we sat down and ordered some cappuccinos which we savored with tranquility to the rhythm of a good conversation, needless to say that they have an excellent service that invites you to return to the site. So if you are in Barquisimeto I invite you to escape to savor a delicious coffee and go through this wonderful experience in☕ Amanecer Coffee Experience." @blanca56
Having a coffee in company
✨"Coffee has a good help for those people who want to wake up, some of the diseases that can avoid a simple cup of coffee is that it can reduce the cause of death by Parkison, but there are also people who have to be careful with the amount of coffee they have to drink, as there are some people who can get to give them insomnia at night, that is to say that they have difficulty sleeping." @alexanderamaya
Coffee with Rob 😎 ☕ (eng-esp)
✨"Something that draws a lot of attention to me to Rober is that he says that I'm always spending a lot of money on cafes, and he explained to me that there was no need for that. To prove it, after an activity with the choir, he invited me to his house to have a coffee prepared by himself." @claudiocruz
Charlotte is always attentive for you to enjoy the best coffee [Eng-Esp]
✨"In this place, not only I give myself the task of enjoying a good coffee, disconnected from a schedule, or quickly, but I seek to forget a little stress of the city just to dedicate myself to understand that life and coffee go hand in hand, it is not a whim, it is beyond a pleasure, where I can feel positive and highly explosive emotions." @crisch23
Coffee Day [ENG |ESP]
✨"I miss those moments of sharing with my coworkers, who today became great friends. Although only one of them didn't drink coffee, we always joked with her because we didn't understand why she didn't like coffee. She said that it was bad for her. Maybe it doesn't have the same effect on everyone." @ikigaidesign
Afternoon of work and coffee. Torrado coffee?
✨"Since I arrived in Argentina, I must confess that I miss, a little, the coffee from Venezuela. And it's not that the coffee here is bad, but it's different from what I'm used to and although they sell a coffee similar to the one I drank in Venezuela, it's out of my current budget. Now I understand why my brother brought so much coffee when he visited us last year." @isauris
Delicious way to prepare a Sparkling Vegan Latte. / Deliciosa manera de preparar un Café con Leche Vegano y Espumoso.
✨"Now we serve! really for me it is very pleasant to see that my vegan coffee is frothy with a rich aroma and delicious, if you like you can add a little more Cocoa or Cinnamon on top, I usually like to put a little Cinnamon." @carisma77
Happy International Coffee Day
✨"And so there are a lot of coffee shops here in the city that I really like to visit. I wish I could share them all together but it would be saturating a bit so I'll just leave you with the ones I love the most and where I've spent some good times." @lucianav
4 HIVIANS WITH A TASTY COFFEE IN CHARALLAVE ! [ENG - ESP]
✨"Here is leo 👉 the best barista I have met so far, the first time I met him was when I visited the Lulé café and now he is at Trattoria y café Domico, I have already told you about this place before and, as I wanted to offer my friends a total quality service for the aromatics in question, then I took them one nice afternoon to taste..." @yenmendt
Oh, No! I Discovered a New Coffee Shop Nearby
✨"Of course, I asked the barista when they opened and he said that they've been brewing since May. I mean, how could it happen that I've never tried this place when they've been here a few months already. It's a travesty. LOL" @juanvegetarian
