How to Find Your Perfect Coffee Match

Valentine’s Day is here and love is in the air.

Or … wait … is that coffee in the air?

If you’re like us, love and coffee go hand in hand. Just like finding a special person you want to spend your life with (or at least spend Valentine’s Day with), finding your favorite coffee is a journey.

So how do you find your perfect match?

Begin by considering your taste preferences. Are you drawn to bold, robust flavors, or do you prefer a lighter, smoother taste? This will help determine the roast level you should start with. 

Light roasts have a milder flavor and higher acidity, while dark roasts are stronger, with more intense taste with less acidity. If you're unsure, start with a medium roast, which offers a balanced flavor and body.

Next, think about your preferred brewing method. Different brewing methods produce different flavor profiles. Drip coffee is known for its mild and smooth taste, while French press coffee brings a full-bodied flavor. Experiment with different brewing methods to see what makes you want to pour a second and third cup.

Just like a good relationship, finding the right coffee also requires a little adventure. 

Try coffee beans from different regions and see which tastes stand out. South American coffee is known for its nutty and chocolatey notes, while African coffee is known for its bright and fruity flavors. Don't be afraid to branch out and try new things.
