Huong Quach (Lucy), Germany
Humpback Whale Specialty Coffee
Please tell us a little about yourself:
I have known and dated coffee for 11 years. I was fortunate to be one of the first baristas in Vietnam when specialty coffee was just beginning to bloom here. Over the years, I've competed in various competitions such as Barista, Latte Art, Aeropress, Syphonist. Each times I compete, I find myself challenged, and my love for coffee is renewed.
It has been a year since I won the title of German Cup Tasting Champion, and I am truly grateful for that achievement after 5 years living in Europe. I continue to grow & improve myself, and my passion for coffee remains as strong as ever.
What are you excited to do while you are in Geneva?
Relax into beautiful Swiss landscapes with a zero emission cruise on Lake Geneva. Enjoy a glass of wine and some snacks as you cruise out from Geneva and admire views of the mountains.
What are your interests outside of coffee?
Cooking & Running
Is there anyone you’d like to thank?
