  • 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.
