Pre-book your place at our annual Charity Latte Art Throwdown - one of our favourite events of the year!
___
On Thursday 16th October, at 6:00pm, we'll be holding our annual Latte Art Throwdown to raise vital funds for another awesome cause https://www.themissingbean.co.uk/pages/events#?event-id=4079
___
This year all profits will be heading to the Mount Elgon region reforestation program - in Kenya - to fund the planting of seedlings to establish tree nurseries in a coffee growing area. The local community can use this alongside numerous governmental and public programs to encourage & embrace the traditional methods of indigenous tree planting. We're hopeful that with this encouragement will come a brand new Direct-Trade farm connection for MB, and one that you can say you helped to get off the ground!
___
Come along and watch, enjoy a locally brewed beer and grab a slice of MB Bakery sourdough pizza - all included in the entry fee. Or if you're feeling brave, test out your skills by entering the competition itself, for the chance to win a big cash prize as well as barista gear & merch.
___
In a twist on previous years, not only will we be using Unordinary Oat Milk for all steaming & pouring, but for the first time ever we'll have a Matcha round! Thanks to our friends at Canton, we'll be going bright green for one of the rounds to test your Matcha brewing skills alongside the silky pours of course!
___
As well as the main competition there will be a charity raffle crammed full with awesome prizes kindly donated by our friends and wholesale partners. For a chance to win some of these great prizes you can also pre-purchase your raffle tickets in advance - simply add on the quantity you'd like to your ticket. Don't worry, there will still be a chance to purchase more on the night if you can't avoid the temptation once you see the tower of treats!

1ST PLACE - £250 & 6-month coffee subscription
2ND PLACE - £100 & Unordinary & La Marzocco merch
3RD PLACE - £20 Online Shop Voucher & 3-month coffee subscription
