How The Drumming Barista Trains His Palate - Coffee Break Ep:4 Home Barista Podcast

    • Passatempos

Hey, all you beautiful coffee lovers!
I hope you are all doing super well. I am so excited (as always) to be back behind the microphone and to be bringing you a new episode of Coffee Break here on the Home Barista Podcast.

Today's episode is one that has taken far too long for me to create and for that, I apologise but Hey, here we are. Better late than never that's for sure. I am talking about how I, The Drumming Barista have trained my palate over the 6 - 7 years that I have taken coffee and being a home barista more seriously than it just being a hobby. As mentioned in the podcast this is a question that I get asked so often and to be honest, I have forgotten how many times I have been asked.
I believe that this episode is one to listen to a couple of times as I share a lot of information on a lot of different aspects of how I have trained my palate and it may be a little overwhelming and or hard to take in the first time round of listening. So, I would encourage you to save or bookmark this episode so that you can keep coming back to it. I also, encourage you to have a notepad and or a note open on your phone, tablet or computer that you can use to take notes when I share my top 5 points for this topic and how once again I have trained my palate to be at the place it is today.

ANNOUNCEMENT TIME

I am super excited to announce that I partnered up with one of Christchurch's best and longest-standing roasters C4 Coffee as their newest affiliate. So, if you are on the market this week or the following week for some fresh coffee, then be sure to click my affiliate link in my bio to browse what C4 Coffee has to offer. I highly recommend their latest Colombian single-origin the Nectario Zuñiga Lactic Natural Light / Filter Roast. I have a bag of this at home at the moment and it is blowing my mind with how crazy and delicious this is. Singing of Passionfruit and Passionfruit. It is like a pornstar martini and a pina-colada cocktail had a love child. It is perfect as a cold brew and or flash brew for the warm weather that we are enjoying here in New Zealand here at the moment.

My next recommendation would be to check out their soon-to-be-released super limited edition, rare micro-lot, award-winning coffee which C4 Coffee are calling the odyssey range which is currently on pre-order. They come in a beautiful-looking 100g tin and you get a washed processed Colombian coffee called Finca Las Flores and which is of the Sidra Variety of coffee beans.

Looking at gifts for that coffee-loving special someone in your life? Then you can't look past the latest addition to the C4 Coffee retail offering and that is the Coffee advent calendar. Consisting of 24 x 20g hand-picked Colombian coffees it is a fantastic way for them to explore different ranges of coffee varieties and processes. Grab these as soon as, as they will no doubt sell out.
