about us
My Name is Christopher Abrahams—Your Turning Point in Coffee and Life
I founded TP Coffee Academy in 2014 after a personal loss that reshaped my purpose. “TP” stands for Turning Point—both in coffee roasting and in life. It’s the moment where science meets soul, and where every pour becomes a story.
Since then, I’ve competed in six national latte art finals, won two South African titles, and represented our country at three World Championships. But more than trophies, I’m driven by transformation—helping others find their own turning point through coffee.
Whether you’re just starting out or refining your craft, TP Coffee Academy is here to guide your journey.
Why It Matters
Coffee is more than a beverage—it’s a bridge between people, cultures, and purpose. My background in logistics, law, engineering, and marketing gives me a unique lens to help you not only master technique, but build a brand that resonates.
TP Coffee Academy is where passion meets precision. Where every learner is seen. And where every cup tells a story worth sharing.
