The first of its kind, Coffee and Wine is a comprehensive study and
comparison of the growing, producing, marketing and consumption of
the two beverages - from tree to cup and from vine to glass. The
book is full of surprises for most readers, whether they are
beginners or professionals within the coffee or wine industries.
Answering questions such as, why has the consumption of coffee
dropped despite the growing number of coffee shops? And, why can
more wine be produced from a tonne of red grapes than a tonne of
white grapes? Morten explains the technical topics about the drinks
using simple language, making the facts and figures accessible for
all, from experts and professionals to consumers just enjoying
coffee and wine. Coffee and Wine is generously illustrated and
contains many tables, charts, maps and case studies. It also
includes information on cultural values and a number of fun facts.
It has plenty of useful facts and figures for anyone with an
interest in either, or both, of the two products.

Newcastle-under-Lyme manages to combine a rich and often dramatic
history with a vibrant contemporary feel. You'll find no better
illustration of this coming together of the old and the new than in
the town's diverse variety of pubs. From hostelries of genuine
antiquity through to battered old backstreet boozers, and from
cutting-edge brewpubs to craft-beer bars, this Staffordshire market
town really does offer something for everyone. People have been
enjoying the hospitality offered by Newcastle's many watering holes
since the days when the town was a major producer of clay smoking
pipes. Today, that reputation continues as a teeming mix of locals,
students and tourists look to quench their thirst. From bustling
alehouses that maintain a live music scene through to traditional
taverns offering a more sedate atmosphere redolent of a seemingly
bygone age, this book will guide you through the town's pub
landscape.
A classic book on making country wines, beer, mead and metheglin.
Including much information on the processes and many delicious
recipes, this book is a must-have for any home brewer or anyone
with an interest in the subject. Many of the earliest books,
particularly those dating back to the 1900s and before, are now
extremely scarce and increasingly expensive. We are republishing
many of these classic works in affordable, high quality, modern
editions, using the original text and artwork.
