WHAT'S THIS ALL ABOUT?
And you thought it was going to be all about Starbucks? Wrong. For a start you are back in 1652 when an eccentric Greek sold foul liquid to an unsuspecting public. Of course they absolutely loved it, and this ‘Bitter Mohammedan gruel’ was to transform the face of the city.
Immerse yourself in the history of coffee as you walk the city streets with Dr Matthew Green, who left a life of academia and turned to popular history. He has featured and co-presented documentaries for the BBC, ITV and the Discovery channels. A journalist and author who gives talks all over London, and can be relied on to be as entertaining and addictive as the coffee he talks about.
Sample the free shots of 17th-century style coffee‘ black as hell, strong as death, sweet as love’. Wander the labyrinthine alleys and secret courtyards of the city, and hear tales from the coffee houses that powered the British empire.
