In this episode, I open up about my current relationship with coffee and what drives my brewing choices every single day. I confess that I'm a pour-over person through and through, with a strong preference for medium to dark roasts—especially darker roasts that deliver both sweetness and acidity in balance. I share my struggles with light roasts, my evolving palate that's making even medium roasts taste too acidic, and why I'm gravitating toward African coffees and certain Colombians. I also reveal my frustrations with fruit-forward profiles that lack natural sweetness and explain why clarity isn't always the holy grail it's made out to be.

By listening to this episode, you'll gain insight into how personal preferences shape our coffee experiences and why understanding your own palate matters more than following trends. I also introduce an upcoming challenge that will push me outside my comfort zone—attempting to master any coffee in just two to three trials instead of fifteen. This journey is about appreciation, growth, and questioning whether we're chasing the right things in our cups.
