Regional Barista Championship
25 partners from across Asia Pacific and Japan compete for the title of Regional Barista Champion
A milestone recognizing the talent, dedication, and growth of baristas across the region.
As each finalist stepped on stage, excitement and anticipation filled the air. This was the moment that the Starbucks baristas had been training for. Over the course of a 15-minute presentation, the finalists executed their Pour Over, Latte Art, and Signature Beverage while telling a story of what inspired their unique creations. The crowd of some 480 Starbucks partners watched in awe and cheered with pride as the baristas gave their best in front of a panel of judges.
