The Japan Brewers Cup (JBrC) is a coffee brewing competition that has been held since 2014.
JBrC is a competition in which contestants choose their own hand-operated devices that do not involve mechanical power, such as paper drip, flannel drip, French press, and aeropress, and compete on their extraction techniques. The contestants are diverse, and the contestants' individuality and ingenuity are tested, as well as their technique and knowledge, in order to bring out the charm of coffee.
At the preliminary competition, contestants use officially roasted beans as a "required service" and are judged purely on taste.
After that, in the semi-final/final competition, each contestant brings their own roasted beans as part of the "open service," and the appeal of the beans is showcased through extraction techniques and presentations. It becomes an important element and reveals the personality of the contestant.
JBrC attracts a lot of attention among coffee competitions, with many competitors competing in hand-drip coffee.
