Gerald is a former barista and a full time coffee enthusiast with a background in marketing and events.
When not visiting the wonderful selection of coffee shops in the beautiful city of Vancouver, he constantly upgrades his knowledge about coffee: be it about beans, preparation, cool coffee equipment, and latte art designs.
Besides a love for coffee, he also has a fervent appreciation for fashion, and is a firm believer that the two go hand in hand.
Coffee is adventure. Every shop, every barista, every brew, every cup will result in a unique tasting concoction each time. Some are so mindblowingly delicious that you would get another cup while ignoring the message your brain is telling you about the caffeine-rush that is sure to follow (or not, if you’re the type with high caffeine tolerance). Others on the other hand… well, it’s a hit and miss! This is probably why coffee lovers are so eager to try different coffee shops and the different drinks within each shop.
But what about when you’re not outside finding and trying new coffee shops all over the city (maybe the world, if you have the means), what go-to coffee beans do you have carefully stored in your kitchen cupboard? While you probably have one or two favorite beans from your most trusted roaster that are regulars in your coffee line-up, surely you try out new beans every now and then. After all, your now favorite beans were once mysterious bags of coffee that were unknown to your palate.
