" Tiki The Science of great coffee..." "...doesn't involve maniacal laughter and placing electrodes on poor, defenceless beans. It does, on the other hand, involve employing expert scientists to get us closer to the perfect cup of coffee.... "...Tiki have worked in the lab to understand the science of freshness -discovering that newly roasted beans have flavour characteristics of their own... ...Our Tiki Cafes, located in IMS, Polwarth, Crombie Hall and MacRobert offer a wide selection of hot and cold snacks, hot drinks and other refreshments...." So now there is a new generation growing up associating "Tiki" with coffee - not primitive art? Only in the U.K., where there is no history to the name. Fascinating.
