Old Quarter Coffee Latte Art Smackdown – Coolangatta
Details
Join us from 6 pm on the 10th of APRIL at Old Quarter Coffee Coolangatta to decide the best latte art barista in our first-ever Latte Art Smackdown on the Gold Coast.
Blood, sweat and coffee will be poured into swans, tulips and all sorts of shapes as the best local baristas battle head-to-head to decide who’s the latte art champion and take the title of Latte-weight champion of the world …Gold Coast. Careers are on the line, as these baristas fight to prove they’ve got what it takes to pour the best latte art in this knock-out style smackdown.
It’s a night to have a laugh and a good time whilst watching the best baristas in the area showcase their amazing skills and hard work.
The only thing we take more seriously than coffee… is competition. Let there be blood.
