Presented by: Rocio Carvajal Food anthropologist. 

Episode 84

This refreshed version of the coffee special explores the origins of coffee and its journey from  Eritrea modern-day Ethiopia, Africa into the Americas and how in a short time became a highly profitable crop. In the second part, we explore some aspects of the cultural history of coffee consumption in Mexico and the fascinating journey coffee makes from the fields to your morning cup.
You will discover what the so-called “speciality coffee is all about” and which are the “Oscars” in the coffee world. 
So grab a large cup and press play!
