2025 KANU Barista Championship

Production and On-Site Direction

Organized by Dongseo Food, the KANU Barista Championship promotes the expertise of the KANU coffee brand and the growth of premium coffee culture. Now in its second year, the competition recruited participants in May and, after preliminary rounds, selected eight finalists.

The finals took place on September 27–28 at the Open Stage on the first floor of Central City, Shinsegae Department Store Gangnam. On the first day, finalists competed with designated drinks—hot Americano and iced latte made with KANU beans—followed by a creative beverage competition on the second day.
