There are other rules for selecting names:
- The name should leave no doubt that you can drink a cup of aromatic coffee here. With the word denoting a popular drink, you can find interesting options: “Thank you coffee”, “Coffee maker”, “Coffee of the world”, “Who wants coffee?”, “Coffee”, “Coffee philosophy”.
- Names that evoke associations with coffee and food are attractive: “Cupcake”, “Croissant”, “Cheerful Day”, “Sweet Tooth”, “Chocolate Girl”.
- The name does not necessarily have to be related to the activities of the establishment. These can be words or a group of words that evoke pleasant associations or sound beautiful: “Expression”, “Tulip”, “Mango”, “It’s mine”, “Chamber of Secrets”, “Maestro”.
- Names using foreign vocabulary will attract lovers of everything foreign. English is most often used: Coffee Lunch Market, Impress, Coffeeshop Company, Forget Me Not. But you can see signs in French: ÔPETIT (Oh God), Macaron (a type of cookie), La vie en rose (Life in Rose); German: Mary's Bagels, Waffel; Danish: Hygge (comfort), Italian: Est! Caffe, Presto Coffee. In most cases, foreign names, like Russian ones, contain the word “coffee”, sometimes the name of the variety, famous brands, names: Magic Coffee, Latte Art, Luigi, Maya, Musetti, Hogan. However, there are many that do not have a translation, for example: Sicaffe, D'oro, Chocorus.
- Sometimes combined vocabulary is used (Sicaffe. Coffee and strudels, ND.Pro.Flowers, New Brig, “Coffee House”) and the Latin alphabet to write Russian words: Umka, Zerno, Zapravka Coffee. It is important here not to go beyond what is reasonable. For example, the words LES and MED (forest and honey) will only cause confusion.
George Clooney
Actor George Clooney, mport.ua
Another lover of espresso and Starbucks is the American actor George Clooney. The actor even transferred his love for coffee to the screens, starring in an advertisement for the Nestle Nespresso brand, with which he has been collaborating since 2006. In addition, Clooney is involved in a program for sustainable development of coffee plantations and helps establish the coffee industry in South Sudan.
Great popularity
It is curious that as coffee spread, this drink almost immediately gained a huge number of fans. Thus, there are many moments in history when many kings and rulers strictly forbade the opening of coffee shops anywhere and people gathering in them. The most famous bans occurred in 1511 in Mecca and at the end of 1675 throughout England. The fact is that the authorities considered local coffee shops to be a gathering place for revolutionaries and many conspirators because of their enormous popularity among the broad masses of the population.
It is important to add that these fears were very justified. Thus, the famous Great French Revolution, which took place in 1789, was planned in a coffee shop. Moreover, the equally famous Boston Tea Party, which took place in 1753, was also partly planned in the same coffee houses.
Amazing composition
Coffee beans contain more than 1240 chemical compounds. Interestingly, most of them are responsible solely for the taste and aroma of the drink. The remaining particles are more responsible for the color and shape of the coffee beans.
As you know, aromatic beans are divided into two main varieties - robusta and arabica, from which hundreds of different variations of the drink are prepared today. It is curious that Arabica is the most preferred drink in the world - 70% of the world population. The remaining 30%, as you probably guessed, comes from Robusta.

Napoleon Bonaparte, as you know, was a convinced and passionate coffee lover. This famous commander could not imagine how it was possible to wake up and start a new day without a cup of aromatic coffee.
All the more surprising was his decree, by which he prohibited the import of coffee, sugar and other colonial goods into France. The French, who had managed to get used to real strong coffee, switched to chicory and other surrogates. The emperor himself suffered no less than his people from the lack of coffee, but the principle was more valuable - there was a continental struggle with England.
After Napoleon was exiled to St. Helena , he found solace only in his favorite drink.
It is unknown where this recipe came from, but it is named after the great commander.
Recipe
For 2 servings, take 200 g of water, 3 tablespoons of freshly ground coffee. Brew a regular drink in a Turk or coffee machine, strain and add sugar to taste and salt on the tip of a knife. Now you need to pour Napoleon cognac into each cup - it should be 1/8 of the volume of the cup.
