NEW ZEALAND LATTE ART CHAMPIONSHIP WORKSHOP 2020, 6PM - 9PM
The workshop is designed for anyone wanting to compete or coach in the
New Zealand Latte Art Championship. We will breakdown the scoring
categories so you can best prepare yourself to compete, referencing
the Rules & Regulations documents from the World Coffee Event. This is
not a hands-on workshop, we will not be teaching you how to pour latte
art. It is a rules-based event, lecture and power-point presentation
with Q&A.
As part of the workshop, we will send out a pre-test to those
attending to start you thinking in terms of the rules within the
Championship.
Come along and learn how to understand the rules and get the best out
of your competition experience. All welcome.

Meadow Fresh New Zealand Latte Art Championship 2020
The Meadow Fresh New Zealand Latte Art Championship 2020 leads to the
World Latte Art Championship which will be held on 18-20 June 2020 in
Warsaw, Poland.
The 2020 prize pack will include flights and accommodation to the
World Latte Art Championship 2020.
The Championship will be held in strict accordance to the World Latte
Art Rules and Regulations, NZ Code of Conduct and NZ Champions Terms
and Conditions and other rules pertaining to the event.
Event Overview
The NZ Latte Art Championship 2020 highlights artistic expression in a
competition platform that challenges the barista in an on-demand
performance.
The NZ Championship 2020 comprises two separate rounds: a preliminary
round and a final round.
The preliminary round will take place on stage eight (8) minutes,
where two identical free-pour lattes and two identical designer lattes
are produced.
The highest-scoring six competitors will compete in the final round
entirely on stage ten (10) minutes. In final of this championship, the
baristas present two identical samples of ‘art in a cup’ for three
different beverages: two separate sets of matching free pour lattes
and one set of matching designer pattern lattes (which may incorporate
etching, or similar techniques, and surface decoration).
The first two pours will be made only with a pitcher of milk. The
designer latte can be made with any surface aid at the choice of the
barista. To ensure that the presented art is what the barista intends
to deliver, the judges will be given a photo of the intended design
prior to the start of the presentation. Artistic impressions of the
design are allowed alongside the image (photo) but the photo shall be
the point of reference to the judges scoring.
The beverages will be judged immediately for visual attributes,
creativity, identical patterns in the pairs, the contrast in the
patterns, and the baristas overall performance.
Event Overview Structure
This competition takes place over a day and consists of a preliminary
round and a final round. Each competitor competes in the preliminary
round, and then the top six will compete again in a finals round to
determine the winner with the highest score, who becomes The New
Zealand Latte Art Champion 2020. Please note that this is only a
summary description of the event and that detailed structure and rules
for this competition are set forth in and controlled by the Official
Rules and Regulations.

------------------------------------
The World Barista Championship organisation (WBC) has licensed The New
Zealand Specialty Coffee Association (NZSCA) to run the New Zealand
Barista Championships from 2008 and into the future.
NZSCA is committed to running the event in close accordance with WBC
standards. Our focus is on producing a field of finalists capable of
competing successfully at an international level, and of course, a
winner who can excel at the world finals.
If you are keen to compete there are a few things you should consider.
Running to the WBC standards is time-consuming and means we can put
only 20 contestants through in a day. In the event that there are more
than 20 entrants for the championship, we will conduct a selection
process, awarding entry to those competitors we consider best able to
excel in competition conditions. This means the information entrants
provide us at the time of entry is particularly important, to help us
make a sound selection.
Dates and venue: Expressions Arts and Entertainment Centre, 836
