Let us take a closer look at the winners…
VITRI™ Tumbler
Winner of best coffee accessories.
The VITRI™ Tumbler by Littorary is a go-to mug that makes the most of your preferred hot or cold drinks.
The VITRI™ Tumbler maintains the ideal temperature with the best materials by insulating your beverage with glass. When glass is used to keep the temperature of your beverage just right, your beverage tastes and smells better.
You will notice that it has an exceptionally smooth mouthfeel, and it is visually apparent what is inside.
The VITRI™ Tumbler is made of glass, so it eliminates synthetic materials like plastic, rubber, and silicone from the drinking experience. Plastic is used in many common beverage containers, and it has an adverse effect on the environment and accelerates climate change.
The tumbler is not yet available in retail but is coming soon.
Black Eagle Maverick Espresso Machine
Winner of Best Commercial Coffee Preparation & Serving
Black Eagle Maverick is a coffee machine that is the most intelligent and user-friendly to date. Simonelli Group had to develop new technology to develop the Black Eagle Maverick.
It couldn’t just look beautiful, with its slick design and Group head display, it also needed to be intelligent. The T3 Genius and PureBrew technology gave the barista complete control of the beans and a revolutionary extraction technique to extract the purest flavour from the coffee.
In addition to beauty and intelligence, the new Black Eagle Maverick creation is environmentally friendly and powerful.
The wand on the Black Eagle Maverick creates 2.1 bar of dry, high-quality steam, for example, but it uses 37% less energy than the previous model. The Black Eagle Maverick uses more environmentally friendly materials and recycles its own energy.
POUR’D
Winner of Electrical Consumer Coffee Preparation & Serving
If you own a coffee shop (or you have high-end coffee equipment in your kitchen), then POUR’D is the quickest, easiest, and most consistent way to serve delicious cold brew coffee.
POUR’D was designed and developed by Marco Beverage Systems. They design, manufacture, and sell innovative energy-efficient water boilers and coffee brewing systems.
POUR’D is a system that dispenses cold coffee at the point of service
POUR’D comes in two general tap (font) systems a ready-to-drink system and a concentrate system.
Both the ready-to-drink system and the concentrate system have a one or three-button version. The three-button version allows you to pour three different preprogrammed sizes of coffee.
In the ready-to-drink version coffee can be dispensed straight from a bag-in-box, urn, or container kept in the fridge, kegerator, or under the counter.
In the concentrate version, POUR’D can serve coffee from a single concentrate and automatically dilutes the coffee with either chilled or mains water. You can use ratios from 1:1 to 9:1.
The POUR’D 3 Button Concentrate version also provides a separate water line so you have the option of adding a water boiler or a water chiller to dispense either hot or cold water from the tap.
This means that POUR’D can deliver any combination of:• Cold coffee (up to 3 sizes)• Shot of coffee concentrate (for iced mochas, lattes, or frappes)• Hot water (for tea, americano, hot chocolate) or cold water (for chilled drinks)

Winner of Specialty Non-Coffee Beverage
1883 Maison Routin introduced a new mixer syrup line for the SCA competition. The syrups include Ginger Beer, Ginger Ale, Tonic and Cola.
The 1883 Maison Routin syrups are made in the French Alps, so you know it has got to be good.

However, you can also use these new syrups when you want to experiment with craft cocktails, mocktails, sodas, tea, lemonade, iced coffees, floats, granitas, slushies, and milkshakes.

The Ember Mug2 is a temperature-controlled ‘smart’ mug.
The Award-winning Ember Mug 2™ 14 oz Copper Edition mug is guaranteed to make every morning, that glorious first sip, shine.
