A cup of coffee



A cappuccino kick-start in the morning before a day spent exploring a new city; a rest in the afternoon with a latte and a slab of cake; a teeny tiny super-strong espresso after a gourmet dinner - coffee is the perfect travel companion.

    Best coffee I've ever tasted

    Posted by LDunton 30 October 2007

    We stopped for lunch at this little farm shop cafe (near Haslemere in Surrey), and had the best cup of coffee I have ever tasted - and I have tried a lot of coffees! I got talking to the owner, and he has looked for (and obviously found) a company that roasts the beans in some sort of special way (he explained, and it was interesting, but the details are a haze now). Then he has a machine that slices the beans in a way that doesn't release the (bitter) oils. After that, he'd researched the best water to use (de-ionised)... and so on. This guy is a real treasure.
