(撰寫日期：2025年8月12日)

☕Finding Your First Great Coffee at AASTA⭐ ⭐ ⭐ ⭐ ⭐

AASTA founder Simon has deep expertise in coffee, but he always humbly says, "I’m no master—I just create the flavors I love to drink." In reality, he personally sources high-quality beans from diverse origins, and handles everything from roasting and blending to perfecting brewing ratios with professional dedication. When chatting with him over coffee, his passion 🔥 shines through as he introduces each bean’s origin, unique flavor profile, and ideal brewing method. Often, he generously shares his custom blends with friends, prioritizing exceptional quality 👍 over cost 💰.

☕Tired of Overpriced, Underwhelming Beans? Must Good Coffee Be Expensive?

Simon faced this same frustration—struggling to find coffee that matched quality with fair pricing in the market. This inspired him to create AASTA: a space where everyone can enjoy premium coffee without premium prices.

☕From "Tasty 👍" to "Discerning 🧐": My Coffee Journey Diary 📒

I’m your editor—a coffee lover 💖 but no expert. I’d call myself a "coffee beginner." Meeting Simon opened my eyes; his insights helped me move beyond simple "tasty/not tasty" reactions. Slowly, I’m learning to distinguish flavor notes and discovering layers I never knew my palate could detect 🌱.

Inspired by Simon’s passion, I joined AASTA to help manage our online 🌐 platform. Through building our website and creating social content, I’m deepening my coffee knowledge while sharing what I learn with fellow enthusiasts like you. Let’s grow from casual sippers into true coffee appreciators—together!

I’m AASTA’s editor ~ Ah Ching💁‍♀️. I’m not a professional barista, but after tasting my first great cup of coffee at AASTA, I began exploring the pursuit of coffee flavors. I’m not a professional marketer either—I’m a total newbie in both coffee and digital marketing. Building this website and posting on Facebook & IG? All learned through hands-on DIY, embraced with gutsy trial-and-error. I’ll be updating my "☕ Coffee Diary📒" weekly or biweekly, hoping to share the coffee knowledge I’ve gained through the AASTA platform and unlock new taste experiences with everyone. Let’s grow together🌱 and become true coffee connoisseurs!

Follow AASTA and my personal IG! Besides coffee☕, I love painting🎨. Everyone is welcome to share their coffee-and-canvas moments with me—I hope we can grow together and step into the world of genuine creative souls~
