SIP COFFEE FROM THE WORLD’S BEST BARISTA<br />

Canberra is proudly the home of Ona Coffee founder and 2015<br />

World Barista Champion Sasa Sestic, as well as the recentlycrowned<br />

20<strong>16</strong> Australian Barista Champion Hugh Kelly.<br />

Following the 2015 Australian Barista Championship, Sasa<br />

went to Seattle in the United States of America to beat almost<br />

50 baristas across the globe to claim the title of World<br />

Barista Champion. This year, Hugh made the journey to<br />

Dublin, Ireland in June to compete in the 20<strong>16</strong> World Barista<br />

Championship.<br />

Sample the internationally-renowned coffee at Ona Coffee<br />

House, Ona on the Lawns and The Cupping Room, as well as<br />

many other cafes across the capital.<br />

GREAT WINE AND FOOD<br />

Canberra’s cool-climate wine regions offer a spectacular range<br />

of experiences, from wine-tasting and fine dining to truffle<br />

hunting. Chardonnay, Riesling, Pinot Noir and Shiraz varieties<br />

thrive in the capital region, with 140 vineyards and 33 cellar<br />

doors – most of which are within a 30-minute drive from the<br />

city.<br />

Incredible culinary experiences await at the capital’s awardwinning<br />

restaurants including Eightysix, Aubergine and<br />

Monster Kitchen and Bar. Canberra’s Akiba also recently took<br />

out the People’s Choice category in The Australian Financial<br />

Review Top 100 Restaurants awards.<br />
