Announcing the Crown Jewel Instagram Photo Contest:
Will you be attending SCA in Seattle this year? Are you enjoying our Crown Jewel selections? We want to support you!
We’ve been noticing your photos of Crown Jewel boxes in the wild, and we can’t get enough of them.
So post a photo of your Crown Jewel box in an interesting place or in an interesting situation and tag us @royal.coffee.inc & @the.royal.crown, and we will re-post your photo in the order received, at 3pm every day. Photoshop skills are encouraged but not required!
The top two photos on our account (by number of likes) win:
- A 22lb Crown Jewel box of green coffee
- The opportunity to curate your own coffee analysis with The Crown team
- Serving your coffee alongside Royal at the Roaster Village at SCA Expo in Seattle, April 21st or 22nd
The contest starts today, and we’ll choose our winners by March 27th so that we can deliver you a Crown Jewel box before April 1st (no joke!). Good luck!
