"Welcome to Five Senses Coffee"

Initial story posted on 6 May 2007

It’s on!

The Five Senses interest in latte-art has been taken to the next level with the wives vowing to begin an intense few months of secret training for an in-house, spouse latte-art off.

It all started when Crystal (wife of Jay) produced a fantastic first effort rosetta. So proud of her efforts, she then picture messaged it through to Jay, who passed it on to everyone at the roastery, who all passed it on to their own spouses as a challenge.

All have committed to an intense training regime (Rocky Balboa style), the pinnacle of which will be an official in-house spouse latte-art off with an eventual winner crowned ‘World’s Best Latte-Art Champion Married to a Five Senses Staff Member’.

FINALISTS — 1 June 2007
After much request, here is the final entries for ‘World’s Best Latte-Art Champion Married to a Five Senses Staff Member’ competition.

 
 
When considering the winner, there was much confusion (well, actually favourtism) — even Erin (finalist # 5) got a vote. In the effort to be completely democratic, we thought it would be only fair that customers vote for their favourite.

Please note that only one vote is accepted per computer. Once you have voted once, it will display ‘survey disabled’.

FINAL RESULTS WILL BE PUBLISH IN THE JULY NEWSLETTER

To ensure someone randomly searching for latte-art doesn’t stumble across this story and judge Five Senses on these fantastic examples above — we thought it would be appropriate to include an example created one of our guys, Richo. Just something a little different from the usual rosetta.
