Starbucks’ coffee cup quote. Globalization, anyone?

“Taste is subjective. Taste is democratic. Taste is powerful. Taste– the combination of texture, aroma, temperature, aesthetic and environment– is also a window into someone else’s life or culture. Be confident in your taste, but remain curious and expose yourself to new tastes. Allow your taste to constantly evolve and grow– while keeping and cherishing the memories that taste creates.”

~Marcus Samuelsson, chef and co-owner of Aquavit.
