Too Much Coffee

Hi All,

In utter randomness i have decided to post a question on the coffee history of Mauritius.

I'm getting married on Saturday and heading off for two weeks' honeymoon on Sunday to the sunny island of Mauritius.

I have no idea if there is any coffee history specifically to do with Mauritius, although Reúnion is pretty close by and i know that island has some history attached...

Anyone know anything about Mauritian coffee? do they grow coffee there (plantation trip pending...)?

Aniticipating responses with trepidation...

There is a coffee plantation in Chamarel. Some greens are exported to France, I believe. I have never been able to get any to try, but will be interested to hear about it if you get there.

Great, thanks Bruce. I'll go check it out while I'm there and let you know if I can grab any.
