  • 21. Saami Coffee Culture
    21 Saami Coffee Culture Chris Kolbu and Anne Wuolab I grew up with Saami coffee culture.1 It was always around me; at home, while visiting relatives, in the mountains, by the reindeer enclosure. It’s a natural part of my life. I only condense it down to its essential parts and present it for people unfamiliar with it, through coffee, stories and settings. Saami coffee culture wasn’t as conceptually clear to me when I started my café in Lycksele in 2011. Even though I had support from the Indigee Indigenous Entrepreneurship program, I still found it difficult to start the business at first. But later, while I was in my café, I noticed how different people would sit and drink their coffee. Saami customers stood apart with their slow, ceremonial way of interacting with the coffee and with each other. Since then, I’ve studied our cultural history and spoken with many people, young and old, to better understand the essence of Saami coffee culture. I’ve learned that, wherever it occurs, Saami coffee culture is basically the same. The Saami started drinking coffee in the late nineteenth century, shortly after it had become pervasive in the southern parts of the Scandinavian countries. Although coffee probably came to the Saami from the south, 1 This text has been edited from an interview with Anne Wuolab by Chris Kolbu on the Nordic Coffee Culture Blog, and republished here with their permission. The original text can be found on the Nordic Coffee Culture Blog. The text begins with a short introduction from Chris, and then switches to a first-person narrative from Anne, based on an interview with Chris.

  • Espresso Yourself: Greenville's Third Wave Coffee Culture
    Espresso Yourself: Greenville’s Third Wave Coffee Culture Why does a latte at Due South not look the same as one from Starbucks? Obviously not all cappuccinos are created equal. Throughout America, select cafes have joined a revolution that has changed how coffee is sourced, roasted and brewed. The New York Times called it an “artisanal coffee movement,” but it is known to most as third wave coffee. The first wave of coffee is defined as the era when coffee first came to American homes in brands like Folgers and Maxwell House. The second wave of coffee was when it began to be sold commercially as an individual drink by companies such as Starbucks and Dunkin Donuts. But the third wave is when coffee became a craft beverage. Here in Greenville there are four third wave coffee shops that have a mission to build the coffee community and bring people together by handcrafting this historic drink. 1 | Latte one part espresso to three parts milk When someone in the coffee community talks about the notes 2 | Macchiato 3 oz. of two parts espresso to one part milk of espresso, it is the underlying flavor that is a result of the 3 | Cortado 6 oz. of one part espresso to one part milk 4 | Cappucino attitude, location and drying process of the beans.

Coffee is an integral part of life for producers and consumers around the world, and it is the world’s second most valuable commodity produced by developing countries (in terms of total trade dollars). This course will consider the diverse expressions and ramifications of “coffee culture,” from the farmers who see it as their life, to the buyers and traders who know it as a living, to the drinkers who can’t imagine life without cups of java. We will explore the historical roots of coffee production and trade, including its roles in nation-building and international power relations, and its current implications for environmental change, economic development and social justice. Alternatives to conventional coffee production and marketing will be considered, such as Fair Trade, shade-grown, and organic coffee. In light of periodic collapses in coffee prices, we will explore the impacts of market volatility on producers, processors, distributors and consumers, and evaluate various policy approaches that have attempted to mitigate the “infamous coffee cycle.” Why do consumers in the United States see little change in coffee prices when international prices experience drastic declines? We will also consider ongoing controversies over coffee consumption and health.

We would also like to thank the personnel, managers and the barista for their answers to our questions. Finally we would like to thank the opponent group for their valuable criticism we would also like to take a moment and express our gratitude to the free software Skype that has enabled us to stay in touch despite the long distance between us. Målilla, Düsseldorf, Helsingborg 2007-05-28 Emma Almqvist Barbara Hruzova Kajsa Olsson Abstract The Swedish coffee culture is changing and bringing new business opportunities for multinational coffee shops. Our purpose with this dissertation was to describe the Swedish coffee culture and its changes. We wanted to increase our knowledge about how these changes can make Sweden a more attractive country for coffee shops, like Starbucks, wanting to establish in Sweden. We choose to use a qualitative method with an abductive approach. To gather the primary data we interviewed one barista and sent questionnaires to staff at different big coffee shops in Sweden. The interview questions were made out of five categories of describing culture by Rugman and Hodgetts. These answers and a multiple of articles helped us to describe the coffee culture and the changes.

  • Coffee Culture : Local Expériences, Global Connections by Catherine M
    Review : Coffee Culture : Local Expériences, Global Connections By Catherine M. Tucker Reviewed by Yves Laberge Québec G1V 0A6, Canada Tucker, Catherine M. Coffee Culture: Local Experiences, Global Connections. New York: Routledge, 2011. xv+160 pp. ISBN: 9780415800259, US $29.95, paperback. Series: Routledge Series for Creative Teaching and Learning in Anthropology Obviously neither about agriculture nor about the growth of coffee in wide plantations, this interesting essay concentrates on the social dimensions of coffee drinking, mainly in America. Although it covers five centuries (see Chapter 5, p. 36), it is not per se a “history of coffee in modern societies.” Rather, it is a rigorous anthropological study of how coffee has become a banal but nonetheless omnipresent element in everyday life, making its billions of consumers (and especially teenagers) forget about its cultural, economical, and addictive dimensions. The daily consumption of coffee implies social values and reproduces some “cool” associations that are efficiently marketed in the mass media and planned in high-scale advertisements (p. 20). It was the U.S. coffee lobby (the Joint Coffee Publicity Committee) that conducted ads and created the unavoidable “coffee break” back in the 1920s, which remains still an unnoticed dimension of the American Way of Life. “The coffee lobby also promoted the integration of coffee drinking into everyday home life through a home economics service, which advised housewives on how to prepare coffee to keep their husbands happy” (p. 19). Observing the U.S. plus some parts of Latin America (notably Honduras), Catherine Tucker (from Indiana University in Bloomington) explains how the coffee industry is still getting bigger, noting the impressive numbers behind the “growing coffee consumption and the popularity of coffee shops” (p.

  • It's Go Time: Innovations in Specialty Coffee Now Make Market Entry Easy
    ARTICLE It’s Go Time: Innovations in specialty coffee now make market entry easy for every operator Specialty Coffee: Special is the new normal The new, rarified world of specialty coffee demands we forget everything we know about the drink from flavor to preparation to price, and start fresh. But there’s no time to spare. With dramatic growth in the specialty coffee market – sales increasing by 20% per year, according to e-importz – it’s becoming a critical component to every menu and retailer. Specialty coffee is just that: Special For most consumers today, it’s a luxury, an indulgence, and for many coffee shop owners, a frighteningly foreign prospect. Specialty doesn’t 80 mean elitist. Indeed, this purified, pared-down iteration of coffee requires dedicated service and equipment, but the good news is that this new kind 60 of coffee has brought with it new ways of preparing and serving that make it easier than ever for shops to join the trend. Innovative products are 40 lowering the barriers to access and enjoy these special drinks. You’re busy 20 and your customers are too, but new technological advancements have made it easy to leverage this trend in your favor. ‘07 ‘08 ‘09 ‘10 ‘11 The Specialty Coffee Association of America defines specialty coffee as scoring 80 or above on a 100-point taste scale. It is further distinguished by being grown in unique microclimates and regions, whose distinctive terroir manifests in the flavors of the beans. In a new movement, coffee is returning to its roots, bolstered by the whole-food rustic-eating trends shaping the rest of the food industry.
