    Based on his expertise, meticulousness, and coffee roasting business, I figured he did something significant when he was younger, so it wasn't surprising to find this video. But what I do find really pleasantly surprising is that he was just as kind and well-spoken 15 years ago. A lot of people think skills give you the right to be rude and narcissistic. I don't believe that to be true. The real great ones don't sacrifice kindness for their talents. James is an amazing person

    I noticed a couple of things he did to pack the puck that are things he no longer does. In one video, he talked about how some things that were the standard back then to pack the puck have changed and improved from back then.It's really neat to see things like that the more I learn. He looked completely in command of everything he was doing. Always a pleasure to watch somebody do something they have mastered, no matter what it is.

His choice of what to serve is based on his own excitement of the flavor profiles which he wants to share with others. 4) The small smile on his lips as he makes the coffee. He’s enjoying his craft.
