(Tapachula, Chiapas Mexico) December 21, 2000 - 5.0/5 stars

I live in Mexico, and grow coffee, and I have to say that this is an excellent book about the general history of coffee, it describes in an quite accurate manner the reality of coffee, its growers, exporters, brokers, roasters and consumers, and like the author says: The best coffee is the one you like!
