Episode 3: Portland Coffee Culture

This week we are talking about Portland's hipster culture as a whole, but more specifically about the coffee scene. We discuss why coffee is so popular here and what this notion of third wave coffee means. We share our impressions of a Portland coffee tour we participated in. Also, we talk about our conversation with a local coffee roaster about the process from farm to cup, and the sense of community created by Portland’s coffee culture. Finally, we make comparisons between the coffee culture of Portland and Seoul, Korea.
