Birmingham Unite

Last Thursday night the Primavera posse again descended upon Atlanta’s Octane Coffee Bar & Lounge to participate in another Thursday Night Throwdown. We are happy to relate that once again our proprietor, Mr. Brett Burton, edged out the competition with a beautiful traditional rosetta latte to take first place. We are equally proud to announce that another of our baristas, Mr. Brian Wilson, took home second place this time! He poured a more modern hybrid tulip pattern which was scored just shy of first. As if this was not enough, the top five was closed off by Urban Standard barista and Primavera Coffee Academy graduate Ms. Jane Brock. Congratulations to everyone else who participated as well!
