Give me Coffee

COFFEE!!!
The Yorkshire Dales is a beautiful place to live, but it has one big problem, the lack of decent coffee. Some of you may think, whats he on about, you just add hot water to powder and there you go. No I am not on about instant I mean real quality espresso based coffee. Yes its that fancy stuf that cost more than a £1, but when made right is worth every penny. What gets me mad is the places that advertise real coffee cappucinos etc, they charge you the high price, then give you a cup of basically crap. There is a skill , an art even to espresso making, I could bore you with the full details, but there are many places in the complex procedure to mess up and in a true coffee house only a trained barista would be allowed to use the machine to produce the drink, not some young saturday girl or boy or an owner wanting to make easy money. From the grind of the coffee to the temperature of the milk is all crucial. I am such a coffee fan that I have my own espresso maker in the shop and I have found few places that make a better cappucino than myself (I know self praise is no praise).
There is now a small glimmer of hope in my local town of Skipton with the opening of Bean Loved a small Father and son run business, they seem to have the passion and attention to detail, the beans are not the best I have had, but still a good cup of coffee.
Let me know your experencies, good or bad.
