I'm trying to remain open-minded but that 'latte macchiato' looks gnnnnarly. The whole concept of etching a rosetta blows my mind (in a bad way). Why are you doing that? Why???? Two words yo: FREE POUR.
We made a "latte macchiato," translating to "milk stained with coffee." This essentially means that we put the milk in first, then "stain" it with the espresso shot. The order here is the reverse of a standard "cafe latte." Putting the shot in second allows us to make pretty designs.
whenever i see the top of a layered latte/latte macchiato it always reminds me of skid marks. you lose the essense of the espresso shot which is the crema, pour yourself two lattes, one as a latte macchiato and one with the shot in first, slowly pouring the milk so you hold the crema to the top of the latte, see if one tastes stronger than the other.
Espresso based beverages can vary from region to region, cafe to cafe. Each has a unique style and no one method is more right than another in this ever-changing, evolving scene.
Simply put, they put the espresso in last, because that is their variation of a latte macchiato.
Gross.
