Holy coffee! Malaysian baristas finally get to compete on world stage

For the first time ever, a Malaysian will be competing at the World Barista Championship (WBC) for the title of world’s best barista.

Thanks to the efforts of the Malaysian Specialty Coffee Association (MSCA), Malaysia is now recognised as a sanctioned country with the World Coffee Events (WCE) organisation, which means that Malaysian baristas are now eligible to participate in all WCE Championships, including the WBC.
