Tinashe Nyamudoka: Kumusha Wine

<p>“You know what? Sometimes I just don’t have to fit in, in place of saying I feel excluded at an event, why can’t I create my own event? Why can’t I create my own wine? Why can’t I create my own space? So for me, you can say Kumusha was a bit rebellious.”</p><p>&nbsp;</p><p>Tinashe Nyamudoka.</p><p>&nbsp;</p><p>Tinashe is a master blender and founder of Kumasha Wines. He was born and raised in Zimbabwe but developed his love of wine as a waiter and latterly sommelier at some of the finest restaurants in South Africa. Kumusha is the culmination of all his knowledge, skill and learning in a bottle and it's been met with rave reviews.</p><p>&nbsp;</p><p>Tinashe has won the prestigious Eat Out Wine Service Award, competed in the World Blind Wine Tasting Championships for Zimbabwe and is an executive member of the non-profit Black Cellar Club. Tinashe knows his wine.</p><p>&nbsp;</p><p>Above all though Tinashe is an entrepreneur; his drive, dedication and vision is inspiring. He left Zimbabwe in 2008 when hyper-inflation ravaged the economy and started working as a baker in a supermarket in Cape Town, from there he became a waiter and finally sommelier. The journey hasn't been easy and I hope you'll be as inspired by Tinashe as I am.</p><br><p>SHOW NOTES</p><br><p><a href="https://www.kumushabrands.com/" rel="noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">Kumusha Wine</a></p><p><a href="https://www.linkedin.com/in/tinashe-nyamudoka-6098b33a/" rel="noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">Linkedin</a></p><p><a href="https://www.facebook.com/KumushaWines/" rel="noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">Facebook</a></p><p><a href="http://www.instagram.com/kumushawines/" rel="noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">Instagram</a></p><br><p>Please follow Generation Africa on <a href="https://www.instagram.com/genafrica.podcast/" rel="noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">INSTAGRAM</a> and&nbsp;<a href="https://www.facebook.com/GenerationAfricaPodcast/" rel="noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">FACEBOOK</a> and if you have any comments or questions email me: tim@genafricapodcast.com</p><p>&nbsp;</p><hr><p style='color:grey; font-size:0.75em;'> Hosted on Acast.
