  • 29. Dhan Tamang on How to Live the Life of Your Dreams?

    This is one of the most inspiring episodes I have ever produced. There’s something special about Dhan’s journey that makes him my role model. He started his coffee journey 16 years before. Originally he is from Nepal, moved to Kuwait where he learned many things about coffee before moving to the UK in 2010.

    From this episode, I learned in order to achieve anything you’ll have to be persistent, consistent, manifest your dreams & work towards it. Check out the whole episode and let us know what you think. Feel free to tag us at adhibrews & dhantamang1.

  • 28. Pranoy Thipaiah on What does it take to become one of India's best coffee estates so quickly?

    It's one of the best conversations I've had lately. If you are someone who has consumed coffee at any place in India, you should have heard about Kerehaklu. They are one of the best estates that produce specialty coffee along with avocados, peppercorns, seasonal fruits, veggies & other herbs.

    In this episode, you'll hear Pranoy talk about coffee and his social media strategies. In addition, he shares his personal experiences with lessons from Australian culture, things he enjoys doing besides coffee, and the story of his first visit to Blue Tokai.

    • 26. Kashish, Heena & Tiger Lily on How to spend your Sunday?

      SUNDAYS. They're either beautiful or entirely unproductive. Some of us have them planned and others just float with the wind and see where it takes them. This week on Brewed Stories, I talk to Kashish, Heena, and Tiger Lily about what to do on a Sunday.

      Listen to this fun-filled Sunday conversation that I had at their home.

      (PS: You'll love the story of how they paid 23k for a 13k pair of shoes, which were eventually uncomfortable)

        • 23. Matt Chitharanjan on Blue Tokai's Journey
          This is a very special episode. I still remember the first time I went to Blue Tokai and being confused. Flavour Notes, Roast Profile, Processing Type & Estate's Name sounded like jargon to me. I am extremely grateful for the coffee journey that I have had and Blue Tokai has played a major role in educating many people like me. It's an honour to have Matt on this 5 min episode. Here's what we spoke: 
          What does Blue Tokai mean to him?
          What was his favourite moment in BT's journey?
          Which is his favourite coffee?
          Which is his favourite brewing equipment?
