We take our coffee drinking pretty seriously and consume a lot of it, second only to Finland where they have the highest consumption in the world per capita.You don't expect a Swede to be a conosouer of fine coffee do you..
Our coffee drinking tradition goes back to 1685 when someone brought the first coffee here. Of course then it was a luxury, consumed by the rich and famous and sold as medication in pharmacies.
I've travelled quite a bit and usually find the coffee to be more like coffee flavoured water. Tim Hortons and Starbucks (I place them in the same category) do OK to be non Scandinavian though. On par with our own Espresso House franchise.
Otherwise, ny general opinion is that you foreigners shouldn't be allowed anywhere near any kind of coffee brewing device when I'm around.
