In this episode, I dive deep into my complicated relationship with natural process coffees. I used to love them—they were punchy, bold, and right in your face with flavor. But somewhere along my coffee journey, that changed. Now I find myself gravitating toward washed coffees and sweeter Brazilian naturals, avoiding the fruit bombs that once excited me. I wonder if my palate has matured, if I'm just getting older, or if I'm chasing something elusive from my past. I talk about preparing to taste a natural coffee again after a long time away, questioning whether it will reignite that old passion or confirm what I've suspected: that I've outgrown them.

Listeners will learn how to critically evaluate their own coffee preferences and understand why their tastes evolve over time. I encourage you to ask yourself the difficult questions: Why do you like what you like? What turns you off about certain coffees? Is it the processing method, the roast level, or something deeper? By the end of this episode, you'll have a framework for examining your own coffee journey with honesty and curiosity, helping you discover what truly satisfies your palate right now, not what you think you should like.
