3. Introduction
Many people would be surprised to learn that your
coffee drinking habits can provide an inkling into your
personality and character, with studies being
conducted to test the validity of this theory.
Studies were conducted as part of the book written by
clinical psychologist Dr. Ramani Durvasula, he used
1000 coffee drinking participants and looked at their
personality and psychological traits, whilst also
considering the types of coffee they drink.
This has resulted in a generalised set of personality
traits of each particular coffee drinker, we know this is
not the case for all people that fall within a category,
with many people falling in between categories.
4. Espresso
You are a hardworking and determined
individual, embracing your natural
leadership ability.
Not only this but you are efficient and
manage to complete tasks swiftly, setting a
great example for those around you.
You’re ability to keep things simple proves
very helpful to people around you, with
patience being another attribute you possess
further demonstrating your approachability
and willingness to help others.
You can be ruthless in the workplace,
working your socks off to get what you
want, with a tendency to be stubborn and
set in your ways.
But don’t worry, that’s not a problem,
you’re ambitious and you know it,
constantly pushing yourself to be the best
person you can be, with all these qualities
helping you achieve your goals.
5. Americano
Your have a simple style of life,
commonly known as minimalistic. You
keep things simple and you like it that
way, with your straightforward attitude
helping you achieve your goals.
People love your outlook on life, with
your direct honesty and down to earth
nature being admired by many.
Sometimes you can be considered quiet
with the occasional mood swing killing
your vibe, but who doesn’t have these
days! Although as a result of this you can
be seen as quite serious at times you are a
hardworking individual who is a great
contribution to any team
6. Latte
You like things that come with ease.
With decision making proving a little
more difficult for you, you embody the
role of a team player rather than a
leader.
You are happy to go with flow and will
go out of your way to help other people
and are commonly labelled a ‘people
pleaser’ as you enjoy making others feel
happy and comfortable.
Nothing is ever too much trouble for you
and people see you as great fun, friendly
and approachable.
But remember it is okay to say no
sometimes, assert yourself and be more
outspoken because it will help you in the
long-run.
7. Cappuccino
The traditional coffee drink for those
social butterflies like yourself. You love
all things social, meeting up with friends
at any opportunity to have a catch-up
and enjoy a delicious cup of your
favourite brew.
Coffee shops are one of your favourite
venues whether it be to work, relax or
socialise, but any opportunity to connect
with someone you embrace with open
arms.
Your creative flair is evident to those who
meet you. Your creativity alongside your
kindness and openness allows you to
make great relationships with this
particular drink selection revealing a
classy aspect to your personality as it
emulates the image of sophistication.
8. Mocha
In my opinion the greatest drink on this list,
perfect for those who are not a fan of the
bitterness that accompanies a coffee such as
an espresso.
The balance of the sweet hot chocolate
cancels out any form of bitterness, with my
recommendation being to add 2 pumps of
caramel syrup to provide you with a
delicious brew.
For some within this category, it might just
be that in reality you are not the biggest fan
of coffee but simply need a pick me up first
thing Monday morning and need to
improvise by introducing your taste buds to
a mocha.
You’re personality is as sweet as the drink
itself – what an awful pick-up line. My
apologies. But it’s true you are naturally
sweet by nature, with this drink suggesting
that you embody innocence.
9. Instant
You are very relaxed, but live quite a
hectic life. You take life as it’s thrown at
you, with your ability to procrastinate
being reflective of your coffee choice.
You’re relaxed attitude can sometimes be
seen as ‘too relaxed’, and can inhibit your
ability to make plans and stay organised.
Your procrastination can sometimes
mean that you become stressed, as a
result of disorganisation, with the pile up
of responsibilities becoming too much.
This can have negative implications on
your health, so it’s important to make
sure that you don’t neglect this.
10. Frozen
You are a trendsetter and a risk taker,
who loves to try new things.
Your adventurous personality is what
people love about you with your strong
presence being recognised in any social
situation.
Being a risk taker you can be seen to be a
bit reckless, with your spontaneity
sometimes getting you into trouble.
Nonetheless you’re socially bold, with
your positive outlook shining through,
rubbing off on those around you, making
you a great person to be around..
11. Decaf/Soy
Your personality is that of a
perfectionists, with your ability to
maintain a routine being something you
pride yourself on.
As well as ensuring you have a
structured day to day routine, you are
also more health conscious than most,
focusing on your health and body.
You typically like to be in control, and as
a result you follow a set of rules you have
set for yourself to ensure your own
comfort in life.
When you are not in control, it can cause
you to stress as you can be a bit of a
worrier and sometimes come across as
overly sensitive, but try to relax, because
everything works out.
