It’s one of the best things about starting this podcast – that I get to meet individuals who are truly passionate about what they do. Euclides is one of those. It is clear from the moment he begins that he loves coffee, and more than that, he loves serving his customers – and that can make the difference between a good cup of coffee and a really great cup of coffee.

Euclides’ journey into the coffee world began at Starbucks, where he moved from a casual coffee drinker to a connoisseur. His experience highlights a common narrative in the coffee industry – discovering a passion through the art of making coffee. Euclides’ story is a testament to how working in a coffee shop can transform one’s appreciation and knowledge of coffee.

In a fun twist, when asked about a parallel universe where coffee shops are like secret societies, Euclides imagines an intriguing initiation ritual involving an altar, a secret passage, and vials of coffee! It’s a quirky take on how integral coffee is to those who love it—literally running through their veins.

Euclides also touches on the community that forms around coffee shops. He recalls interactions with regulars like a professor who taught his sister, showing how coffee shops are places of connection and cultural exchange. These interactions are not just transactions but are the building blocks of a vibrant community.

This was a great chat with a barista whose enthusiasm for coffee really packs a punch. I hope you enjoy listening.
