Coffee Craze In China

For centuries the chinese population has relied on the sweet taste of nice cup of tea. Now millions are learning of the taste and addiction of coffee and latte’s. The problem is in a country where most still drink tea, there seems to only be a few who knows how to brew a cup of coffee. A good cup that is.

Recently China’s labour ministry has declared an official shortage of coffee makers and is calling for 10,000 people to be trained. Restaurants are in good need of coffee makers but the posts are being left unfulfilled for lack of coffee making skills.

I just wonder how long before they realize just how addicting coffee can become. When I used to drink it because I worked at night I didn’t even realize that I was awake for days at a time because we had free coffee as well as free latte’s at work. I was beyond buzzed.
