A visit to Feel Good Coffee Roaster, a local café that supports, trains and empowers both within the walls of their cafes and restaurants, but also in the lives of their staff and farmer-suppliers.. I gets a firsthand experience of the café's specialty coffee, learning about different brewing techniques and the nuances of various coffee beans. I also gets a sneak peek into the world of coffee cupping, a quality control process for coffee. The process ensures that each roasted batch maintains a specific quality, aligning with the brand's signature blend. I not only learns but also gets a chance to make coffee using the dripping method at home with Feel Good's special blend, a mix of Mondulkiri robusta bean with a blend of arabica beans from Dalat, Vietnam and Changrai, Thailand.
