About the Book

The Coffee Companion is the ultimate connoisseur’s guide for coffee aficionados and lovers of café lattes, cappuccinos, and espresso ristrettos. Expertly researched, the book covers every aspect of choosing and making coffee, from selecting the right freshly roasted 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 flavor 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 many coffee styles like an expert, including cappuccino with perfectly frothed milk, and espresso with a creamy, caramel crema.

The Coffee Companion is an indispensable source of reference and an invaluable source of inspiration.
