Meet Adam: Chief Caffeine Officer

Hi there! I’m Adam Carter, the slightly unhinged brain behind Coffee Heads. My love affair with coffee started 15+ years ago—probably when I realised it was the only thing keeping my eyelids from staging a permanent protest. What began as a barista gig in a Seattle dive (the good kind of dive) spiralled into a full-blown obsession.

Coffee Heads is my attempt to share this caffeinated chaos with the world. It’s a place for fellow coffee nuts, curious sippers, and anyone who believes life’s too short for bad coffee. We’re all about finding the fun, the funky, and the fantastic in every cup.

Our Manifesto (Kinda)

Mission: Make specialty coffee less snooty and more… you. Whether you’re a seasoned pro who can taste the altitude in a single bean, or you just know what tastes good, we’ve got your back.

Vision: A world where every coffee break is a mini-adventure—and maybe world peace through perfectly brewed pour-overs. (Hey, a guy can dream.)
