Finally, I Can Now Enjoy a Proper Latte!
The world of a barista is one rich with the aromas of freshly ground beans and the subtle nuances of different coffee brews. However, being lactose intolerant, my stomach was constantly at war with the traditional milky lattes that customers adore. It was like being a painter allergic to the color red. Every sip was a reminder of the barrier between me and the creamy goodness of a well-made latte. This inspired me to develop Barista’s Choice Oat Milk for Henry and Sons.
The idea first came to me when a customer stepped into our café, inquiring about non-dairy alternatives. Unfortunately, we were unprepared and had to share the disappointing news. This incident triggered an exploration into the oat milk market, testing various brands to find a suitable substitute for the full cream milk we were using. Many were too thin, too sweet, or too thick, failing to mimic the desired properties of full cream milk. The realization dawned upon us: the solution was to craft our own oat milk, one tailored for baristas that could emulate the rich, creamy essence of full cream milk.
Easy to steam, pours like full cream milk
Our vision was clear: to craft an oat milk that is proudly Philippine-made, rich in protein and minerals, and capable of producing a silky, shiny steamed milk perfect for exquisite latte art. This was not just about creating a non-dairy alternative; it was about championing a product that stands tall in both nutritional value and barista functionality, aligning with the artistry and craftsmanship inherent in the coffee culture. Our quest for perfection led us down the path of rigorous experimentation, determined to introduce an oat milk that complements the barista’s skill in latte artistry while staying true to our local roots.
