'Passion of the Cup' with Canada's Sammy Piccolo

Sammy Piccolo is the Wayne Gretzky of Canadian Baristas and quite possibly the entire world. He's the only barista to finish in the top-3 at the World Barista Championships for three consecutive years. If you have not wandered into Caffe Artigiano in Vancouver, a boutique coffee house that Sammy co-founded, you should make it a point of doing so on your next Vancouver visit - it's a true coffee delicacy!

However, if you can't get to Vancouver so quickly and you want to get a good perspective on what it takes to make a great cup of coffee by Sammy Piccolo himself, check out this awesome documentary short film called 'Passion of the Cup' which was done by Dan Rocque, a Vancouver Film School student.

I guarantee, you will crave a high-quality cup of coffee after viewing this video. Or, you may never look at your Timmy's double-double the same way again.
