Let’s Connect on Social


Coffee has something about it that attracts us. It could be the aroma of freshly brewed coffee, its strong flavor, or the boost of energy it gives. Whatever the reason, coffee is a delicious drink that is enjoyed by humans. It has found its place in our favorite movies, books, and art, showing its influence on humans.   In this 787 coffee blog, we are going to talk about the appearance of coffee in our favorite movies and books, its impact, and what has become today!

Coffee in Books and Art


Coffee is known to boost energy, creativity, and mood, it only makes sense that many actors and authors utilize it as a writing tool or even incorporate it magically into their books and movies. Coffee is common in literature, films, and art. Examples of this could go on forever. Coffee has been shown as a romantic date, as an energy boost, such as when Thor discovers how delicious coffee is on Earth and is ready to save the world, or as a way to connect such as in the book  "their eyes were watching god"  when the protagonist was asked to have a cup of coffee with by an old lady because she was in need of company to drink her coffee after her husband had recently passed away. Maybe it's true, coffee tastes better with good company.

Coffee Behind the Scenes 

Coffee shops have become amazing settings in movies, as the backdrop for different famous scenes. They're places of first dates, friendly gatherings, and celebrations, representing a sense of coziness and belonging. 

It’s the feeling of coziness, the aroma of coffee, and the feeling of belonging that makes people relate to the scene.

Coffee can be used to symbolize the habits and characteristics of a character. Protagonists who are always working, studying, or in the process of creating something new are often shown as coffee drinkers. something many humans can relate to! So coffee and creativity are related. This is why many people when they have work to do or study choose to drink coffee, because it's something shown everywhere!

Coffee can represent hospitality,  we may see characters being greeted warmly and given a cup of coffee in several films, as a sign of comfort.

Coffee shops are gathering places for people to relax and have meaningful discussions over a cup of coffee. One TV show that shows this is "Friends." where the main characters get together for coffee almost every day after work to discuss their lives, relationships, and significant events. Coffee was only an excuse to get together and connect. Just like 787 Coffee, where our doors are open for YOU to stay hours talking with friends and connect



Coffee and Books 

We have all had our moments when we just want to sit, relax, read, and a good book with a delicious coffee in our hands.

But why do we relate coffee to books? Maybe because it's the perfect thing that boosts our energy and focus! Books transport us to different worlds, and coffee is our best friends that boost our imagination and focus. But hidden in those books journeys we also meet with coffee lovers and coffee shops in those books. How amazing! 

Examples of this can be found in a romantic scene in “I Owe You One” where the two main characters meet, in a coffee shop while each one is working. 

Coffee in a book never looked better than in our incredible "Creative Fucker Book" from 787 Coffee! Not only does it talk about creativity, self-belief, and becoming the best version of yourself, but it also talks about how important coffee is to our day to start a routine. The morning coffee gives us the energy and inspiration to face the day

But our love for coffee doesn't end there, artists have even shown their everyday life in paintings, portraying it as a relaxed moment while sipping coffee or as their favorite friend. Henri Matisse's coffee paintings are a good example of this. At 787 Coffee, we have witnessed many incredible humans who paint and share with us the paintings they make in our coffee shops, which show other humans drinking coffee,  our murals, and our coffee shops  This is a wonderful example of how coffee can inspire humans, spark our creativity, while giving us energy! It's just MAGICAL! 



Conclusion

In summary, Coffee is everywhere we go, in books, TV shows, art, and movies as an amazing way to unite people. We find it as a gathering point, as a romantic scene, and as a morning routine. We see it in movies and TV shows where characters meet to talk about their lives. Coffee, is more than a drink, it's an EXCUSE!  for togetherness. Whether we're enjoying it in a coffee shop with friends,  quietly at home, or offering it as a gesture of hospitality, coffee remains a beloved drink in our lives, inviting us to pause, connect, and enjoy the little pleasures of life.

Quick View
Supremo Roast — Farm-Grown Single Origin Puerto Rican Specialty Coffee
from $40.00

This is the cup that started everything.

The 787 Coffee Supremo Roast is our signature

single-origin specialty coffee — grown at

Hacienda Iluminada, our family-owned farm in

Maricao, Puerto Rico, at 3,000 feet above sea

level in the island's central mountain range.

Handpicked at peak ripeness. Honey processed

on the farm. Roasted fresh in small batches.

Shipped directly to your door.

TASTING NOTES:

Buttery caramel — from the honey processing

method that leaves natural sweetness in every

bean. Dark chocolate — from the high-altitude

growing conditions that slow the cherry's

development and concentrate flavor. Bright

citrus finish — clean, clear, and completely

unforgettable.

THE HONEY PROCESS DIFFERENCE:

Most coffee is washed. Some is natural

processed. 787 Coffee's Supremo Roast is

honey processed — a labor-intensive method

where the outer skin of the cherry is removed

but the sweet mucilage layer is left on the

bean as it sun-dries at Hacienda Iluminada.

The sugars absorb into the bean. The sweetness

becomes part of the coffee itself. You taste

it in every cup.

Iluminada. One farm. Full traceability.
