The smell of coffee - 6 Minute English

Improve your English vocabulary with 6 Minute English. Is there more to coffee than just drinking it? Experts say that the smell of the beans is just as important. Neil and Catherine discuss the science behind why coffee often smells better than it tastes and teach some new English vocabulary along the way.

Whenever the smell hits me, my mouth begins to water. :D Thanks for your lovely video, stay safe in the pandemic.

    As a Vietnamese and a coffee lover, I thrill to bits when hearing about Vietnam in this video, you pronounce Vietnam very smoothly and Vietnam also has a great reputation for planting and exporting coffee to many countries in the world, so we are really proud of it. Moreover, not only useful and educational all the programmes are, but also I can enhance my English skills by watching these videos everyday. I am really thankful for that ❤️

    As a Colombian and also a coffee lover I'm really amazed to hear this 6 minute English's chapter. My thoughts: the ability to perceive the smell of coffee is a much an importat part of the experience as drinking it. That's why, using a paper lid you've got from coffee shops chains is weird because they get rid the smell of it, which is something vital. Thank you BBC learning English.
