Synopsis

A monk who couldn't stay awake. A philosopher so punctual his neighbors set their clocks by his afternoon walk. A duchess with a sinking feeling at five o'clock.

Centuries before anyone used the word mindfulness, people were already building an entire practice around coffee—using nothing more than hot water, ground beans, and attention.

The Lost Art of Coffee tells the real story of one of the world's oldest and most quietly ritualized daily habits. From a goatherd's legendary discovery in the Ethiopian highlands to the Ottoman coffeehouses that reshaped public conversation, from the 1901 invention that made coffee faster than ever before to the modern movement that tried to slow it back down, this is the documented history of how coffee became something to rush through—and how it was never meant to be that way.

This isn't a health book, and it won't tell you how much coffee to drink. It's the story of a ritual—and a simple, honest invitation to reclaim five unhurried minutes of it for yourself.

Inside you'll discover:

- The documented history of coffee's origins and its journey across three continents
- The Ethiopian coffee ceremony that still preserves a tradition much of the world has forgotten
- How a single Italian invention in 1901 transformed coffee into a drink built for speed
- A simple five-minute ritual that requires no special equipment or lifestyle change
- Historical figures, a timeline, a glossary, and suggestions for further reading

Part of The Lost Art Series, each book stands completely on its own and can be enjoyed in any order.
