        Cortados are harder to pour clean latte art, so I celebrate the wins when they come 😄

                  @Bridger this is the other capital - Oslo.

                  Allthough norwegians and pretty much anyone are amateurs in coffee consumption compared to us finns

                    That's very interesting, @aksu, I did not know that.

                    The Top 5 Per Capita (2025/2026 data):

                    Finland (12.0 kg/year)
                    
                    Norway (9.9 kg/year)
                    
                    Iceland (9.0 kg/year)
                    
                    Denmark (8.7 kg/year)
                    
                    Netherlands (8.4 kg/year)
                    

                    Here's some fun facts too.

                    Top 5 Most Expensive Cities (Average Cup)

                    These figures represent the average price for a standard cappuccino or latte in early 2026.

                    Zurich, Switzerland – $6.85
                    Consistently the most expensive due to some of the highest labor wages and commercial rents in the world.
                    
                    Copenhagen, Denmark – $6.75
                    High environmental taxes and a national preference for high-end specialty beans drive this price.
                    
                    Manama, Bahrain – $6.45
                    High import costs and a booming luxury cafe culture make this the priciest spot in the Middle East.
                    
                    New York City, USA – $6.35
                    Prices surged in late 2025 following "C-Market" bean shortages and rising logistics costs.
                    
                    Dubai, UAE – $6.20
                    Known for "ultra-premium" experiences, including cafes that offer gold-infused or rare microlot brews.

                        That is pretty impressive for the Finns.

                        I would hate to track what I actually drink. At home alone my wife and I easily go through four 12 to 16 ounce bags per month in the machine, and then I drink coffee outside the house two to three times a day.

                        Every weekday morning I start with a double espresso, then add two short double coffees on top in my Yeti, with a little almond or other non dairy creamer.

                            As a Norwegian with a Finnish great grandfather I refuse to add up the yearly total 🤩

                            For any coffee lovers visiting Oslo I very much recommend Tim Wendelboe. That's the gold standard in my opinion. Try both the filter (aeropress) and the espresso while you're there.
                            (Java is another excellent spot).

                                when I look at my family tree, DNA etc. it makes sense why I like coffee so much… but i’ll be honest with you I didn’t realize Nordic countries drank so much coffee.
