Alright guys, so you enjoyed our first post about presidents? Well, that was child’s play, and we’re just getting warmed up. Welcome to our 2nd part of a 5 part series, outlining the quirky connections between coffee and past POTUSes. Lets get started:
11) James K Polk: is said on many accounts to have been the most boring of all of the US Presidents, ever. Not only is he said to have never danced, a couple sources have reason to believe that he never drank coffee, and he and his wife were labeled overly prudish by many.
We begin our list of all of the presidents of the United States of America, and a tidbit or two of their quirky or interesting relationships to coffee. This is part 1 of a 5 part series.
1) George Washington: he was a coffee importer according to some of his ledgers, bringing in as much as 200lbs of coffee at a time from overseas, and also asking for what was considered the world’s best coffee beans just weeks before he died.
