In Its Purest Form

Dear O'H dear and Lovely Tea Jenny,

At work, it has long been the case that you can’t just get a coffee from Cafe Nero or Pret without someone looking at it like something they have stepped in and giving out a pitying look. Even worse if you commit the cardinal sin of forgetting to take a reusable cup. Now, coffee tw@ism has reached a new low. One of the guys at my bank of desks HAND GRINDS HIS OWN BEANS*. In the office. Every time he has a cup. The person sitting next to him today looked over during this process. “I see you are a purist”, he said whilst nodding approvingly.

WTF????

What’s the next level of @sshattery? Are you only a REAL coffee lover if you have trekked to Machu Picchu to pick, dry and roast your own coffee beans?

I am going to put a jar of instant on my desk next week. The ‘purists’ will probably need smelling salts to recover from the shock.
