For the discerning snob, the art of snobbish spooning is a delicate dance of subtlety and disdain. It's not just about scooping up the good stuff, it's about making a statement.
Start by selecting the finest, most exotic beans, sourced from the most remote, inaccessible islands. Then, grind them to a precise, asymmetrical grind that's just a touch too coarse. Finally, pour the perfect amount of water, just shy of a full cup.
But don't just stop at the coffee, oh no. The true art of snobbish spooning involves a delicate balance of cream, just a dollop will do, and a sprinkle of sugar, a pinch will suffice. The goal is to convey a sense of superiority, without actually tasting the coffee.
Want to take it to the next level? Try pairing it with a bespoke biscuit or pastry, sourced from the local artisanal bakery that's just a bit too trendy. The perfect combination of flavors and textures will leave your guests in awe, or at least, in a state of mild curiosity.
