"A Film About Coffee" is a love letter to, and meditation on, specialty coffee. It examines what it takes, and what it means, for coffee to be defined as "specialty." The film whisks audiences on a trip around the world, from farms in Honduras and Rwanda to coffee shops in Tokyo, Portland, Seattle, San Francisco and New York. Through the eyes and experiences of farmers and baristas, the film offers a unique overview of all the elements—the processes, preferences and preparations; traditions old and new—that come together to create the best cups. This is a film that bridges gaps both intellectual and geographical, evoking flavor and pleasure, and providing both as well.

Whilst we are all sharing the Hario love, naturally, my hand grinder is a Hario too! It's amazing to read so much coffee chat from Israel! Being from Melbourne, Australia, I'm extremely spoiled with choice and can basically take my pick from dozens of cafes which all have a wide selection of the finest single origin beans from all over the world... On my travels to Israel, I have found that these guys are leading the pack - https://www.facebook.com/MaeCafe . Sure, there may be a little hipster place down some tiny little dead end street that I've never heard of that provides better beans! But I recommend getting in contact with the MAE Cafe boys. And for the real coffee freaks out there, check this out! It's basically a porno movie for coffee enthusiasts! ;-) https://www.facebook.com/filmaboutcoffee
