Your host
I believe communication is the first step to solving anything. That’s why we value trust, transparency, and mindfulness in everything we do. Coffee flows in my blood since my childhood in Paris, France. From the café on the terraces to a warm cup of Turkish coffee at home, it was always a connecting moment between people and culture. After my engineering degree, months of travel at coffee origins, and years of coffee education in London, UK, I launched Memli Coffee Lab to propose an innovative approach to coffee roasting with a focus on sensory experience, transparency, and education.Looking back, coffee has always been in my life. As we say in French, it's my "madeleine de Proust" and my glimmer of hope at the same time. I hope you can catch me one day and share ideas around a cup of coffee
