People in Central and Northern Europe drink coffee rationally and gently, just like their national characteristics. European life and coffee, almost has formed an inseparable link, in addition to Italy and France in the area of different coffee drinking methods, from Austria, Switzerland, Germany, as well as several Nordic countries, coffee taste habits and tastes can be said to be similar, they deeply understand the middle way, completely belong to the medium concentration taste. Central and Northern European people brew coffee at home, most commonly used simple hand-brewed filter coffee pot, and Taiwan common household electric coffee pot (Drip Coffee Maker). Among them, the filter paper brewing coffee method originated in Central Europe, was invented by German Mrs. MERITA at the beginning of this century, and was widely spread in European countries. However, coffee in the business place, due to the need for a large number of fast supplies, is still the world of Espresso coffee machines, but the coffee beans used are different.

The biggest difference between coffee in these countries and Taiwan may be that they clearly distinguish coffee, sugar and milk. Many coffee shops list the different prices of black coffee and milk coffee, and some even include the weight of coffee as a factor in the price difference.

Some countries in Central Europe, such as Austria and Switzerland, are famous for their dim sum, and the variety of pastries is naturally another excellent performance on the coffee table. In recent years, the average coffee consumption of the people of the four Nordic countries has been ranked among the top four in the world (more than 1,000 cups per person per year).
