Re: Sea Salt Coffee Coming to Australia

Interesting... But also no surprise as to adding salt to coffee.

Not sure where I picked it up from, but a very small pinch does make an interesting change...   Not unlike in cooking...

However it is easy to over do it and then it tastes crap..

As to 85C coming to Aus...  We will just have to wait and see..

IIRC Viviane mentioned it ages ago.

When I was growing up it was common to add salt to apples occasionally.
My wife thinks its strange.

Just like my thinking an Asian friend of mine was strange for suggesting adding salt to watermelon.
I tried it the other day...a not unpleasant change.

My wifes heritage is the same.
The first time I tried haloumi and watermelon was for breakfast in Cyprus.
Seemed strange but its quite nice.

Re: Sea Salt Coffee Coming to Australia

It makes good sense. Lots of baristas signature drinks in competition have salt in them.
