Fifteenth-century Arabs were the first to cultivate coffee and a Frenchman was behind the 1843 debut of the world’s first commercial espresso machine.
There have been a few leaps forward since then.
“People are more and more interested in where the beans come from, and how they’re harvested and roasted,” says New Zealand barista champion Nick Clark of Wellington’s Flight Coffee. “There are so many variables involved in producing a great cup of coffee these days, and the industry has had to evolve to meet growing consumer expectations.”
The world’s best coffee cities are those where the coffee isn’t just good—it’s great.
15世纪的阿拉伯人最早栽培咖啡的。1843年一名法国人首次制造出第一台商用咖啡机。
从那时起,咖啡的历史就有几次巨大的飞跃。
“人们对咖啡豆的来源、如何收获、如何烘焙越来越感兴趣,”新西兰惠灵顿咖啡比赛冠军咖啡大师Nick Clark说,“要想做出一杯好喝的咖啡,里面有太多的影响因素。咖啡业需要不断进步才能满足顾客日益高涨的期望。”
在世界上咖啡最棒的城市里,那里的咖啡不仅仅是好,而是非常好。
Reykjavik, Iceland 冰岛雷克雅未克
After the Dutch, Scandinavians have the highest coffee consumption per capita in the world.
While Finns drink the most among Scandinavians, Icelanders are also coffee crazy.
“Not too long ago, cafés in Reykjavík were more about the food,” says Kristin Thora, a barista at Icelandic institution Kaffitar and reigning National Cupping Champion.
“You’d have coffee and cake and didn’t mind how the coffee was as long as the cake was good.”
“Then, about 25 years ago, people started to care about how their coffee was served.”
With Iceland’s lack of commercial coffee behemoths, smaller businesses have had a chance to flourish.
Now you can hardly walk a city block without passing a coffee shop.
“Drip coffee is popular in the home, but Icelanders tend go to coffeehouses for espresso-based drinks,” says Thora.
Local order: Latte or cappuccino.
除了荷兰,北欧人是世界上人均咖啡消费量最多的国家。
虽然在北欧人中,芬兰人是喝咖啡喝得最多的,但冰岛人也很热衷于咖啡。
“不久之前,在雷克雅未克,去咖啡馆更多的是去吃食物。”Thora说,他是冰岛Kaffitar的咖啡师,也是咖啡大赛的全国卫冕冠军。
“你会点咖啡和蛋糕,只要蛋糕口味不错,你就不会介意咖啡的味道。”
“接着,大约在25年前,人们开始关心咖啡的服务。”
冰岛缺乏咖啡巨头,小企业有机会蓬勃发展。现在你去每一个城市街区基本上都能看到咖啡店。
“过滤咖啡在家里很流行,但是冰岛人喜欢去咖啡馆喝浓缩咖啡,”Thora说。
当地必点咖啡:拿铁或卡布奇诺。
London Britain 英国伦敦
Aussies and Kiwis opened the city’s first espresso-focused coffee shops (such as Flat White and Kaffeine) a decade ago and they’ve been popping up across the city ever since.
“London still has a long way to go with café service, but in the past five years there’s been so much growth,” says Estelle Bright, head barista at London’s Caravan. “London is still in the grip of the flat white craze, but cappuccinos are similarly popular,” says Bright.
Local order: Flat white or cappuccino.
澳大利亚人和新西兰人十年前在伦敦开了首家以意式咖啡为主的咖啡馆(例如Flat White和Kaffeine),从那时起,咖啡馆就不断出现。
“伦敦咖啡厅的服务还有很长的路要走,但是在过去的五年里有很大的进步”,伦敦Caravan的顶级咖啡师Estelle Bright说。
“伦敦人仍然热衷于白咖啡,但是卡布奇诺也同样受欢迎,”Bright说。
当地必点咖啡:白咖啡或卡布奇诺。
Vienna, Austria 奥地利维也纳
Coffee is such an important part of Viennese culture that the city’s coffee houses were listed by UNESCO in 2011 as an Intangible Heritage.But modern coffee connoisseurs such as Vienna coffee blogger Lameen Abdul-Malik of From Coffee With Love admit that the standard of coffee in these beloved institutions, which act as public living rooms where people come to chat, read newspapers and eat strudel, are lagging in terms of coffee technology and service expectations.
“Since Vienna hosted the World Barista Championships in 2012, and new-style independent coffee shops began to open up, the quality of espresso drinks is steadily improving,” says Abdul-Malik.
Or a Vienner melange (similar to a cappuccino, but usually topped with cream) in a traditional coffeehouse.
Local order: Espresso or cappuccino in a new style cafe.
咖啡是维也纳文化中如此重要的一部分,以至于2011年该市的咖啡馆被联合国教科文组织列入非物质文化遗产。但现代的咖啡鉴赏家,如在CoffeeWithLove网站上写博客的维也纳咖啡博主Lammen Abdul-Malik承认,人们都喜欢去咖啡店里聊天、看报、吃点心,但咖啡店的咖啡标准在咖啡技术和服务期望方面都有些滞后。
“由于维也纳2012年举办了世界咖啡师大赛,新型的独立咖啡店开张,浓缩咖啡的质量在稳定提升,”Abdul-Malik说。
或在传统的咖啡店里点维也纳米朗琪咖啡(类似于卡布奇诺,但是上面通常会放奶油)。
当地必点咖啡:在新型的咖啡馆里点浓缩咖啡或卡布奇诺。
Australia, Melbourne 澳大利亚墨尔本
The coffee culture in Melbourne is just incredible. Coffee is such an integral part of the Melbourne lifestyle that the city even hosts an annual coffee expo.
While lattes, cappuccinos and flat whites remain popular, piccolo lattes (made with less milk so the espresso tastes stronger) are the most popular.
Local order: Piccolo latte.
墨尔本的咖啡文化令人惊奇。咖啡是墨尔本这座城市生活不可或缺的一部分,墨尔本甚至每年都会举办咖啡博览会。
拿铁、卡布奇诺和奶香咖啡在那里非常受欢迎,而迷你拿铁(使用了少量的牛奶,这样咖啡的味道更浓)最受欢迎。
当地招牌咖啡:迷你拿铁。
Italy, Rome 意大利罗马
Coffee is so much a part of Italian culture that you’ll rarely encounter a local who doesn’t drink it. But believe it or not, it’s not always that easy to find a decent espresso in Italy, with critics whispering that Italians have been resistant to adopt modern barista techniques. But with the best of the nation’s baristas calling it home, Rome is your best bet for a quality cup. Custom dictates that milky coffees can only be consumed at breakfast.
Local order: Espresso.
咖啡已经成为意大利文化的一部分,你很难遇到一个不喝咖啡的当地人。不论你相信与否,在意大利找到一杯像样的浓咖啡并不总是那么容易。有批评者说,意大利一直拒绝采用现代咖啡技术。但是意大利最好的国家咖啡师却称,罗马是咖啡的故乡,如果你想喝到一杯高质量的咖啡,罗马是你的最佳选择。
那里的习俗是只有在早餐时才喝牛奶咖啡。
当地招牌咖啡:意式浓缩咖啡。
America, Seattle 美国西雅图
If there’s one American city that’s consistently ahead of the game, it’s Seattle. The green mermaid is only a small part of the hometown coffee scene. “Coffee is our liquid sunshine in Seattle,” says Joshua Boyt from Victrola Coffee Roasters, one of the city’s best cafes for coffee geeks. “Passion for the product, coupled with the sheer number of coffee shops across the city, has created a culture of constant improvement through competition and camaraderie.”
Local order: Espresso, cappuccino or a single-origin pour.
如果说有一个美国的城市领跑咖啡业,那么非西雅图莫属。绿色美人鱼只是这个咖啡故乡中咖啡场景的一小部分。“在西雅图,咖啡是我们的液体阳光。”来自Victrola Coffee Roasters的Joshua Boyt说。对咖啡极客来说,Victrola Coffee Roasters是该市最好的咖啡馆。“对于咖啡的激情,再加上整个城市数目众多的咖啡馆,在竞争和友爱中已经营造了不断改进的文化氛围。”
当地招牌咖啡:浓缩咖啡、卡布奇诺、单品咖啡。
Singapore 新加坡
Coffee has always been an integral part of Singaporean life, but they’ve only recently embraced modern espresso technology. Locals have become so obsessed with latte art that it has become a basic criterion for a good café.
Local order: Latte, mocha or cappuccino.
咖啡是新加坡人生活中不可或缺的一部分,但是直到最近新加坡人才开始接受浓缩咖啡的技术。当地人对拿铁艺术特别痴迷,以至于它成为鉴定一个好咖啡馆的标准。
