For professional baristas, please follow the coffee workshop (Wechat official account cafe_style)

Coffee, one of the three largest drinks in the world, is made from roasted coffee beans. Together with cocoa and tea, they are the most popular drinks in the world.

The word coffee comes from the Greek word "Kaweh", which means "strength and passion".

As an important drink for Europeans, it has been integrated with the way of life.

Coffee and prejudice

Zhong Lirong, vice president of the China Coffee and Coffee Beverage Professional Committee, said in an interview: "in comparison, the proportion of Chinese people drinking pure coffee is not high. They usually choose to add a coffee partner, or drink coffee drinks directly. "

Many Chinese people have class misunderstandings about coffee.

When it comes to background culture, Zhou Libo, founder of Shanghai School Qingkou, also made resolute remarks about comparing the cultural significance of the North and the South with coffee and garlic.

At this point, taking a cup of Starbucks to take a picture is to pretend to be a petty bourgeoisie, and emptying it in a cafe has become a fake art.

Petty bourgeoisie and literature and art represent a corresponding class and group, and they belong to the minority and minority. This fully reflects the dominant group in China's coffee consumption share.

Due to the constraints of system, GDP and basic quality, there is an insurmountable gap between us and coffee culture.

But I believe that many people like coffee and stay in coffee shops, just need a specific space, can allow time to slow down reasonably, and meditate on enjoying delicious or enjoyable relaxation.

If this can make life better, why should we wear tinted glasses to examine and identify it?

Coffee Culture in Korea

South Korea mainly relies on the export of cultural soft power, Yangguo. The related offline consumption driven by the idol assembly line and a wave of well-made idol dramas: clothing and skin care, makeup, etc., and have to mention. A coffee shop that goes to every play.

What makes us curious about the shows we often see in cafes is: is the placement of advertisements ferocious or the daily form of local culture?

In fact, South Korea has always been called the "Coffee Republic".

Has a unique coffee culture. The cooperation between a dazzling variety of coffee brands and the endorsements of popular stars seems to have become more prosperous in South Korea, the 13th coffee consumer in the world and one of the most coffee-drinking countries in the world.

However, South Korea does not produce coffee beans, and about 80,000 tons of coffee beans are imported each year. This strong supply and demand has a lot to do with the ubiquitous cafes and the one-cup lifestyle.

If everyone's impression of the function of the cafe still stays in dating, business and other specific occasions. The desserts in South Korea, which are all over the streets, full of design sense and type atmosphere, with authentic coffee and broken girls' hearts, are subverting your imagination about coffee shops.
