    I would add to the Ethiopian conversation that Ethiopia is the birth place of coffee, and is a huge part of the culture. The reason Italy is so associated with coffee is that they tried SO HARD to colonize Ethiopia, but instead they just kinda got a cultural exchange where Italy got coffee and Ethiopia got pasta 😂

    When I was a kid, my whole class was learning how to cut with scissors and I was terrible at it, so the teacher assigned me a special teacher to spend more time with me to learn the way of the scissor.
    My special scissor teacher noticed that I was left handed forced to use a right handed scissor. They got me a left handed scissor, stepped back, and watched me as I cut my little heart out. 😋 ✂️

    Ethiopia is where the coffee plant originated! Specifically the arabica coffee bean, which is a smoother milder blend versus the other species of coffee, Robusta. Ethiopian coffee is special because it's coffee grown in its natural environment and is also a precious and historical industry to the Ethiopians.

      She uses a copyright licensing service I believe called lickd (though there are others too) where you pay monthly and then are allowed to use copyrighted songs they have licenses for and still monetize her videos. If you seriously want that you can try it yourself too. Though if your channel is small and unmonetized like mine, using a song that's allowed but not allowed to monetize might still be better.

But on a more serious note, I've just moved to Montpellier (south of France) after living in Paris for 10 years and I have zero friends to go to coffee shops with. So this video has inspired me to go and check out my local cafés on my own and do your scoring scale for my own amusement. Merci Caroline!

    You're right. The best cafes have something unique about them and good service. 2 and 5 were my favorites. I had a chat for a while with a barista a few days ago and it was fun to talk to someone knowledgeable. Even when I tried to leave so she could work and attend to the growing line she kept talking lmao. She seemed to enjoy our conversation too. That cafe not only has pour-over but the staff actually know what they're doing and they're selling quality equipment from Timemore and Fellow and they even have hand grinders. Cool place.

    I am so glad you did a coffee shop critique. My husband and I own a coffee shop which is also inside our hardware store which was established in 1904. I also love local coffee shops too and there is a little bit of a ‘tude’ some baristas cop when this gramma shows up. But I know what I’m talking about out.
    The sign outside our shop says 1901, but no it was 1904)) and the latte shop inside , “The Bean Counter” was opened in 2000. One of the things people seem to like about it is that it is a surprise to see. Locals love it because our coffee is good.
    Now I have an idea of what categories we can work on, thanks to your insightful and correct judgement. Wish you could come here (but we’re way the hell and gone across the country from you) and critique us.
    We would send you to The Baker’s Table bakery just up the street for treats. We support other businesses in our little PNW village.
