Publisher's Synopsis
The Connoisseur's Guide to Coffee is an indispensable reference and invaluable source of inspiration for coffee aficionados and lovers of cafe lattes, cappuccinos and espressos. Expertly researched, the book covers every aspect of choosing and making coffee, from selecting the right freshly roasted Arabica beans to choosing the correct brew to suit your taste. At its heart is a directory covering the finest unblended coffees in the world. In addition, all specialty estate coffees are included, such as Kona from Hawaii, Yauco Selecto from Puerto Rico, and - of course - the world's premium coffee, Jamaica Blue Mountain. Expert flavour profiles are included as well as star ratings so that you know what to buy (and why) when next visiting your local coffee merchant. Most importantly, the book shows you how to make any coffee styles like an expert, including cappuccino with perfectly frothed milk and espresso with a creamy caramel crema.
