what felt like a last-minute plan turned into one of our favorite nights yet🚧
after our in-house barista, Jake, placed 1st Runner-Up at PNLAC 2026 last June 13, we thought it was the perfect time to bring the local coffee community together and host a latte art throwdown here in Subic–Olongapo.
seeing so many baristas show up to compete, cheer each other on, reconnect with familiar faces, and meet new ones made the night even more special.
to every barista who signed up, stepped onto the stage (pls excuse our small bar✌🏼), and poured their heart into every round—thank you for making the competition what it was.
to everyone who came to support a friend, a teammate, or simply the community—thank you for being there.
a huge thank you as well to everyone who helped bring OFF THE CLOCK to life:
