Swedish Coffee and Fika Culture Explained
Just what is the big deal about coffee in Sweden? Like all good Scandinavians, Swedes love their coffee; theyâre actually among its highest consumers in the world. Swedish coffee is not just a drink, itâs a way of life. The Swedish custom of
fika has been cultivated around the hot drinks, and thereâs even a special brew made with eggshells (more on that later!).
This has lead to an all-encompassing and quality-obsessed coffee culture in Sweden, including micro-roasters, lots of wonderful cafes, and of course, loads of delicious coffee to try both in-store and at home.
