An American and a Swiss talk about the Specialty Coffee Industry

Kaffeemacher-Podcast: Coffea

Kosta Kallivrousis from Algrano US and host Philipp Schallberger share a critical perspective on their everyday work

In this podcast they are reflecting on how they experience the ecosystem of the specialty coffee industry. They challenge the view on how we understand taste evaluations, value and quality. They look for the "tastemakers" and compare a European and an American Specialty Coffee market, look back where it is rooted and how it became an Anglo-Saxon concept that collided with an Italian coffee culture that has dominated the European coffee industry for decades.
