Noble Coffee Roasting will be hosting an event coming up this August 12th from 6 pm to 10 pm, dubbed the First Annual State of Jefferson Barista Jam, taking place at the Noble Coffeehouse, located at 281 4th Street in Ashland, Oregon.

For us, this is simply an exciting excuse for coffee geeks and enthusiasts to convene, compete, discuss, learn, and build a sense of coffee community here in a spot that is smack dab between Portland and San Francisco.

The State of Jefferson Barista Jam is loosely limited to industry folks who are motivated to make new connections in the specialty coffee community. What if a few interested, non-industry individuals want to join? Hey, we're completely fine with that.

Events include: best latte art, best vessel, best manual brew, and finally, the blind taste test. The entrance fee is set at $10 per person and will include local beer and pizza served by Noble employees at the bar.

For folks coming in from outside of the area, we have special pricing for accommodations. Depending on interest, we may also be able to get special pricing for other events such as rafting, fishing, plays, etc. the day after the SJBJ. 

To RSVP for this event or for more information, please contact Marjorie Gosling at 541.292.2093 or at marjorie@noblecoffeeroasting.com.
