He is a 3rd-generation coffee producer, a trained agronomist, a certified Q-grader, and a sought-after Cup of Excellence judge. Quality and repeatability are key. He’s developed an incredible following for his mastery in fermentation (and co-fermentation) borrowing techniques from the wine and beer industry and finding the perfect recipe to make coffees have an everlasting sweetness and tasting exactly like the tasting notes on the label say. His ultimate goal is to make coffee more approachable to customers in that regard. Where you do not have to have a professionally trained palate to detect the flavor notes.
