Hello from Ireland dear coffee lover,
Espresso machines in pubs, flat whites > red ales, and Irish flags waving at global barista championships - Ireland's coffee culture is on the rise.
Irish pubs, facing competition from the caffeine spread, began installing espresso coffee machines to attract an even bigger and diverse clientele who seemed to be much more keen about a coffee than a lager.
Irish coffee roasters are also experimenting with new tastes and techniques to create distinctive and delectable beverages, such as cold brew and nitro coffee.
In my view the future of coffee in Ireland looks promising, as there are several trends and innovations expected to evolve in the coming years. One of the most significant developments is the growth of the specialty coffee market, which is being driven by the emergence of artisanal coffee shops and roasteries. These establishments offer high-quality coffee that is often sourced directly from small-scale farmers and roasted in small batches to preserve freshness and flavor.
The future of coffee in Ireland is bright, with a focus on sustainability, innovation, and high-quality coffee.
