 Competitors in the latte art competition will film a ten minute unedited video in which they produce four drinks: three monk’s heads and a signature pour with Pacific Foods Barista Series alternative milks. Competitors will be judged on similarity of the first three pours and creativity of the signature pour.

We are committed to working directly with you to make any accommodation necessary for you to be able to apply for and ultimately compete in the DiGiTiTiON.
