Barista, Barista

For nearly 2 years now, Andrew and I have been developing a taste profile for what we consider
a high quality coffee experience. We've visited every coffee purveyor in the area and some as far away as Florida, Kansas, and Chicago and have found that espresso-based drinks are about as varied as the barista that makes them.

Baristas are a fun bunch of folk. Some do the clean-cut look. Others have tattoos and piercings. I saw one guy that had hair about three feet long and a girl with a crew cut. But for whatever style they sport, I've found that baristas are passionate, driven, trendy, hardworking people who happen to absolutely love what they do.

I can't wait to hire our barista at Jamani Java just to see what God has in store for us.
What fun!
