Coffee grounds have never been a treasure in the eyes of ordinary people, and many cafes have no choice but to discard them, which leads to waste. There is no shortage of people who turn a blind eye to this kind of waste, or fumble for the code of wealth, and transform it, making its value soar. Among them is Nike six months ago, Nike used coffee grounds in the shoes, the insole printed on the cat pattern, and coffee as the theme of the shoes, it can be said to attract the attention of many cat slaves and coffee lovers.

After the clothes made of coffee grounds, shoes made of coffee grounds, cups made of coffee grounds, and tables made of coffee grounds, coffee grounds have been developed for a new use.

The new product made by this coffee grounds breaks through people's understanding. If you don't, you probably don't know it's made of coffee grounds.

A company from Wales uses recycled coffee grounds to make gin, which goes on sale on World Golden Wine Day on June 12.

Although this gin is made from coffee grounds, it contains no caffeine.

The gin, made from coffee grounds and developed by Ground for Good, combines the company's founders Rosie Oretti and Amy Adams's love of coffee and the concept of sustainability. And partnered with the local gin company to create GFG London No.1 dry gin.

Before using coffee grounds to make gin, they used coffee grounds to make a series of products such as body scrub, candles and so on. And their raw material, coffee grounds, comes from a local cafe in Penat.

It is worth mentioning that Rosie, the founder of the company who developed the product, is one of the few addiction therapists in Wales, and she did not expect that she would one day produce and sell alcoholic products. Part of the proceeds from the product will also be donated to a charity for the homeless.

The caffeine in this GFG London No.1 dry gin is removed during distillation. Traditional London dry gin is popular in the market because of its unique and subtle flavor of raw materials such as juniper, seaweed and lemon.

In addition to the strong flavor of coffee, this gin can taste the perfect fusion of juniper, citrus and other spices, with a hint of smoky coffee grounds in the finish, and the liquid is colorless and transparent in color.

According to the official website of Grounds for Good, this gin is available in three sizes, 700ml, 200ml and 50ml, with an alcohol concentration of 44 degrees.

Its price per bottle is also not high compared with some high-end brands of gin, with 700ml for 39 euros (about 300 yuan), 200ml for 15 euros (about 115 yuan) and 50ml for 5 euros (about 38 yuan).

As a coffee lover, the most interesting thing is to wear clothes and shoes made of coffee grounds, sit on a chair made of coffee grounds, and put the cup made of coffee grounds on the table made of coffee grounds under the lampshade made of coffee grounds. The cup also contains wine made from coffee grounds.

This is not a declaration of love for coffee by coffee lovers with a room full of coffee grounds.
