Everyone loves a nice barista championship, but what if you feel the Compe-Tea-Tive? Maybe you want to change it with a compact mech winner-cage output. Well, so Spiritual tea He only has an event for you. Presenting Silver ChastenA completely fresh matcha competition, and the first installation will take place next month Night coffee in Charlotte, North Karolina.
Named in honor of Chasen, a mustache traditionally used to create a mother, Silver Chasen puts eight teams of two barists testing their palate, creativity and skills from matcha. Silver Chasen organized similarly to the Barista Championships requires from players to three different challenges: one and one, signature and chakabuki.
One and one is a standard root preparation round in which each team will have to prepare one match shot, as well as “Matchato Milk oat matchamatado” (let’s say that five times quickly), also known as matcha cortado, in which they will be assessed on “purity and flow of work, technique of enriching mother, mother, accuracy of their taste and texture descriptions.”
The signature is a signature based on the mother, which will be presented to the two secrets to the judges to gain a assessment of taste, texture, visual attractiveness, creativity and consistency. Competitors will also have to create a 4 ounce version of the drink to serve viewers, and the crowd has gained an additional 10 points.
Finally, Chakabuki is based on a conventional Japanese tea tasting game, in which the teams will have to “identify the origin and variety of five green teas in two rounds (first and second steep).”
At the end of three rounds, the results will be achieved, and the winning team will take $ 500 home, as well as two silver chasen necklaces hand made by the artist Alexis Romero.
The registration of silver Chasen was opened on Friday, May 2 and costs 40 USD, which includes “the cost of the preparatory set with mother and tea samples, competition rules and Spirit Tea Swag”. The turnout is completely free.
It all started on Friday, June 6 at the night Swim’s Roastry and Cafe Space in Charlotte, North Carolina. For more information, visit Spirit Tea Official website.
