India Coffee- Indian Coffee, monthly magazine-Cover Story

  „The specialty coffee movement has gained much of its momentum through the efforts of Starbucks Coffee Company, which from it's home-base in Seattle had expanded to some 5,000 stores around the world by early 2002, and Peet's Coffee & Tea, based in Berkeley, California. Together these two chains, both from the West Coast of the USA, have become the model for the contemporary coffee shop and have inspired entrepreneurs around the globe. Strongly influenced by the Italian espresso bar, the café latte culture has become a rage in Silicon Valley.“
