From our friends from Indonesia with love, Arabica from Java.

No, not monsoon-ed in Malabar but yes consumed in Dhauladhar.

Come have a cup of coffee with us this monsoon.

And while you do, here's a poem to consider, with due credit, respect and regards to Mr Seth.

Prandial Plaint
by Vikram Seth

My love, I love your breasts, I love your nose.
I love your accent and I love your toes.
I am your slave. One word, and I obey.
But please don't slurp your morning brew that way.
