Japanese barista phenom Hiroshi Sawada is known the world
over not only for his impressive latte art skills (he's a past winner
of the Coffee Fest Seattle Latte Art Championship), but also for
his street-smart style when it comes to everything a barista might
want to wear, pour from, pour into, tamp with, or read. Hiroshi
just released his second book, Hiroshi's Latte Art and Barista
Style, available now. And unlike his first book, this one is in both
Japanese and English, with tons of instructive color photos and
great tips from one of everyone's favorite barista icons.
