What does your coffee choice say about you?

Jamaica Blue in partnership with MONIN celebrate Caffeine Appreciation Month with a fun interactive Coffee Personality Quiz

Jamaica Blue in partnership with MONIN, is inviting coffee-lovers everywhere to discover some of the quirks in their personality by taking its Coffee Personality Quiz. Launched during Caffeine Appreciation Month, the quiz reveals in a fun way what your choice of coffee says about you.

“Aussies are known for their love of the cappuccino, followed closely by the latte and flat white,” says Simon Au-Yeung, Head of Coffee Training at Jamaica Blue. “That said, the piccolo latte made with a ‘Ristretto’ shot of coffee is growing in popularity — especially later in the day when people are going for their third or fourth cup and still want that bold coffee taste and caffeine hit, but with less milk and calories.”

Aside from their preferred choice of coffee, Australians know quality and have high expectations.

“That’s why we are seeing demand increase for limited edition, ethically sourced coffee from specialised farms across the globe, be it a single origin or seasonal blend.”

“And dare I say, that is why some baristas will throw out a coffee and remake if they, or the customer, are not satisfied. A good barista knows how to get the maximum flavour from the bean – amongst variables like the dose, the tamp and the grind. To make a good ‘Espresso’ coffee the barista needs to ensure the coffee extraction flows like a strand of spaghetti – not to thin and not too thick because this can affect the flavour and strength of the coffee,” added Simon.

So what’s your go to coffee and what does your choice say about you?
