Mastering latte art ain’t easy. One must have an understanding in liquid physics and do a lot of practice to perfect a pour of artistic shapes into a latte served to every customer.

Good thing that Figaro trained their barista not only the best possible ingredients but also cutting edge designs to make the coffee more fun to drink.

Till next competition!
