Coffee Tao

The Way of Coffee is a blog about the production, market, and enjoyment of coffee. Somewhere between a trade magazine and a personal journal, and written by an enthusiast with 10 years of industry experience, the Way of Coffee provides education and editorial opinion about all things coffee.

The author of Way of Coffee, Aric Annear, spent 10 years in the coffee industry as everything from a barista to a roaster to a buyer. Now he lives in Seattle with his lovely wife, the acclaimed horror author Cherie Priest, and does occasional coffee consulting and training while maintaining an enthusiast blog at WayOfCoffee.com.

Aric feels a little awkward talking about himself in the third person, but it doesn’t stop him.
