In this episode, I dive deep into the world of coffee varietals and share my eye-opening experience tasting seven different varieties from the same farm. I explored how different coffee varietals—including Javanika, Yellow Caturra, Catamaran, Lorena, Pacamara, and Gesha—each express unique flavor profiles, from chocolatey and nutty to fruity, floral, and vibrant. Through this experiment, I discovered that not all coffee tastes the same, even when grown on the same farm with similar processing methods. I challenge the common approach of simply brewing coffee the same way every day without truly understanding what we're drinking.

By listening to this episode, you'll learn why coffee varietals matter and how they significantly impact the flavors in your cup. I break down the concept using a simple apple analogy—just as there are Gala, Fuji, and Granny Smith apples, coffee has its own diverse varieties that deserve exploration. Whether you're a casual coffee drinker or an aspiring enthusiast, this episode will inspire you to push beyond your comfort zone, expand your coffee knowledge, and truly appreciate the journey of discovery that comes with each cup.
