Episode 5: Eating Coffee (ft. Sarah Allen of Barista Magazine)

Both Sam and Jean don't eat breakfast - they eat coffee. In this episode, Sam (former NZ Barista Champion, Latte Art Champion, coffee trainer and all-around expert) talks to Sarah Allen (the editor of USA-based Barista Magazine) and his co-podcast host Jean (consumer of coffee) about the ins and outs of coffee and its culture. We talk about the raw material, how you can tell if coffee is good or not (objectively speaking), the rise of cafe culture, where coffee culture is going next (cool specialty drinks galore!), and the cultural capital of coffee. Plus, we get an overseas person to say how good the coffee in New Zealand is (which we always love hearing, thanks Sarah), and learn a bit more about Barista Magazine, which is read by hundreds of thousands of people in over 83 countries around the world. - Follow Ate Ate Ate on Instagram Follow Sam Low on Instagram Follow Jean Teng on Instagram - Thanks to our special guest, Sarah Allen!
