The team here at Meadow Fresh love coffee, and we believe it’s important to support New Zealand’s coffee industry. We are proud to be a long-time supporter of the New Zealand Specialty Coffee Association, and the principle sponsor of the Aotearoa Barista Champs 2023.
New Zealand's most talented baristas will be competing to win the national title in Upper Hutt on Saturday 25 and Sunday 26 March 2023.
Each barista will take the stage for a 15-minute demonstration to music of their choice. They will be required to prepare four espressos, four milk drinks, and four original signature drinks. Scoring is based on: the taste of their beverages; cleanliness; creativity; technical ability and presentation.
