Sri Lankan Coffee, it's Disgusting!

If You love Coffee Read this!

Are you a coffee connoisseur?
Do you love your filter or ground coffee?
Are you planning a tour of Sri Lanka?
If you answered yes to the above 3 questions then prepare to be really disappointed by the coffee in Sri Lanka.
Although Sri Lanka is a coffee growing country, the sad fact is the coffee is just disgusting. In fact I really think it has been mis labeled because there is no way it even tastes like coffee.

Amazingly, Sri Lanka has been growing and serving "coffee" since the 1800's.
It was during the time of Colonial British rule that  tea and coffee plantations were introduced to Sri Lanka. Coffee was so popular in the 1800's it was served everywhere. Today, it no longer resembles coffee but it is still served everywhere!

100's of years growing coffee and it's still tastes disgusting!

Whilst Sri Lanka was able to continue cultivating fine teas, it has failed completely to produce a coffee bean that tastes anything like coffee, despite having had 100's of years to practice growing a decent coffee bean.
If you are planning a tour of Sri Lanka be prepared to encounter this dreadful coffee, it is normally served very milky with sugar. When you first taste it you are likely to ask "WHAT IS THIS?"

To make matters worse the only other coffee widely available is Nescafe - nuff said!

Take your own Coffee on your tour of Sri Lanka!

Include Colombo in your tour of Sri Lanka to ensure you visit a decent coffee house (they have a few!) and some of the better hotels also serve imported coffee.

To be on the safe side I suggest you pack a super strong, shake your bones and wake you up coffee like this one, to make sure you get a good coffee fix on your Lanka Travels.
