Advantages: Delicious Coffee and aroma Disadvantages: high caffine intake
...be quite a bitter experience, very nice if you add a touch of Whisky or Brandy, but if at all possible try it with Italian Grappa, an Italian firewater with a real kick.
Having lived in Italy I got used to drinking this on a regular basis, but all you new comers to mocha coffee be warned, you can get what the Italians describe as the itches, where your skin literally start to itch like mad, basically this is because of the high caffeine intake, not the best of drinks to be serving the kids.

9 cup size £12.60

For as long as I can remember this coffeepot has been loitering on the cooker in my kitchen. Perhaps of the advertisers conditioning I was subjected to when I was growing up - I could sing you the tune! - , the distinctive mark - the man with the... more
