The OrangeCoat Coffee Cupping by Bear ~ 2 years ago ~ 5 comments

We all like to taste good things, but we rarely know why we like something or how to describe it. We see this same problem when talking about design and business in general.

Our goal is to help people better describe what they are looking for in all walks of life by teaching them techniques to better explain their likes and dislikes in food and drink. more
