Fun facts and visually pleasing!
Pick up this book from the sales department at my local book shop, and did not expect much since it is very compact and light, which I thought would be easy to carry around in my bag.
However, once I started reading it, it was surprisingly engaging and fun to read and had very cute visuals. The author and the artist collaborate very well in producing this book.
I do love good coffee, and reading this while drinking one is very relaxing and inspiring.
Learned new coffee knowledge and can not wait to try the coffee bean of each country when I travel next.

Coffee, book, and travel are essentially what you find in little book entitled “Destination Coffee” by Jane Ormond. Succinctly, you learn the basics and intricacy of coffee including four waves of coffee evolution.
Power of coffee is undeniably world phenomenon. Live and present with this little book.

A really enjoyable evening read with beautiful artwork throughout. The level of illustration and connection of it to text was fabulous.
All in all a fantastic guide for hunting down great coffee in many of the worlds cities.

A super-fun read that's also incredibly informative. Not just your usual coffee hotspots: 'Destination Coffee' is a guide to a diverse range of coffee cultures and attitudes to the delicious brew. I particularly loved the write-up of Hanoi and its disturbing/delicious egg coffee.
