From Championship to Your Cup
From April 3 to 5, the KALVE Coffee team achieved a historic victory at the Roast Masters 2025 competition in Amsterdam, securing 1st place! This triumph not only underscores our unwavering commitment to quality but also marks a new chapter in Latvia’s coffee industry history, surpassing our previous 2nd-place achievement in 2019.
The biggest challenge in the competition was adapting to unfamiliar coffee varieties.
- As Raimonds notes, “The greatest challenge is always working on yourself. You have to learn to trust your expertise and abilities.”
- Jānis, in turn, emphasizes the team’s role: “This is an honor for the entire KALVE team—a testament to our daily work and quality.”
