Ian McGee works at Fiction Coffee in Deep Ellum and will soon represent Dallas in the US Coffee Championships.
Ian McGee will create two espressos, two cappuccinos and a personally designed signature beverage at the competition.Fiction Coffee’s own Ian McGee will compete in the preliminary round of the U.S. Coffee Championships, taking place Sept. 9–10 in Raleigh, North Carolina. The event gives McGee the chance to both visit his hometown and showcase his talents in the barista category of the national competition.
“For the baristas competing, you have to give a presentation about what coffee means to you,” McGee says. “My presentation is going to be about the relationship between coffee and people.” Third wave coffee is a term coined in the late '90s for a movement that started in the '70s emphasizing a higher-quality coffee product. Beans are generally sourced from either local or individual farms and roasted to bring out distinctive flavors, which sometimes are exclusive to their place of origin.
McGee thinks that for a time Texas was a bit behind on coffee culture compared to some coastal scenes, but that's changing,"Now we have a great group of local roasters and independent shops doing things like making their own syrups, experimenting with techniques and working hard to help us be able to rise to any occasion.”
