Latte Art — it’s a beautiful site and oh, how I wish that I could learn how to do it. I think there should be classes on this. Well, whether you are an artist or not, the upcoming Barista Throwdown, taking place on Thurs., August 28th, should be an exciting night out. This is the first in a series of Thursday Night Throwdowns (taking place on the 3rd Thursday of every month) where local baristas compete to be named Best in Show.
The first event will take place at Terebinth Studio & Gallery (300 Dixie Hwy, West Palm Beach) on Thurs., August 28th starting at 7:30 p.m. Local baristas from Oceana Coffee, Terebinth Studio & Gallery and Brewhouse Gallery will all be competing. Contestants pay a $10 fee, which will be donated to Oceana’s Barista Camp Fund and a panel of judges will vote on the winning latte. Their will also be a people’s choice award — and attendees can donate $2 per vote and vote for their favorite.
This event is sponsored by Oceana Coffee and bags will be available at the event.
September’s event is scheduled for Thurs., September 25th and will take place at Brewhouse Gallery in Lake Park. All area baristas are invited to attend.
