We’re back in Nashville for part two of our special Coffee Sprudgecast series. We take you live on the event floor at the 2019 US Coffee Champs Qualifying Event in Nashville, Tennesee. There we join multimedia director Elizabeth Chai, who—in addition to helming our must-follow Instagram coverage of the event—taped a series of original interviews for this week’s episode of the podcast.
