A cup of coffee or tea paired with interesting company is an unbeatable combination. We learn and share so much through this simple social ritual. Nuanced origin stories. Brow-raising secrets. Good news. Bad news. Hopes and dreams, insecurities and fears. Sip by sip, we do business, catch up, plan our lives, and discover common ground.

To gain a better understanding of his friends, Myron went on a mission to try their favorite drinks. He was struck by the complex flavors and simple pleasures that characterized their personalities. Sweet. Spicy. Bold. Bewitching. Optimistic. Ostentatious. Practical. Perfectionist.

In Coffee, Grounded, Myron reviews these drinks and brews up a perfect blend of culture and caffeine. He examines the history of various ingredients and coffee-growing regions, painting a vivid picture of faraway lands and hometown haunts.

A Delicious Simple Pleasure

The author takes themes that feel deeply familiar and reshapes them into fresh ideas, offering insight into the everyday choices we can take for granted. We coffee lovers have long known that a morning cuppa is the reason to get out of bed. Clifton, transforms it into an invitation to live in the moment.

The book reminds me that holding the cup, taking a sip connects to memory and heritage, reaching across centuries to share in the same ritual our mother’s mother once savored. I know I’ll return to it again.

A joyful read I’ll share with the wonderful people in my life.

Monica is a wonderful narrator
