Tell us more about your coffee shop or barista skills.

As a part of the wholesale company in high quality tea, -coffee and espressomachines I work for, we recently opened a shop for private consumers. In this shop we sell coffee, tea, chocolate, machines, accessories and we have several tables where guests can enjoy a perfect brew. We have at least three different blends available for consumption in our store as a standard.

My job at this company is to train staff and customers in how to work with coffee, advise about- and demonstrate our products and try to maintain a certain qualitylevel.

About Me:

During my studies (bachelor in hotelmanagement) I did a traineeship at an Italian roasting company (Caffè Costadoro). I became infected by the coffeevirus and have not been able to stop discovering the wonderfull world of coffee.
