Here are is a fact that you might not have known about coffee to consider as you enjoy your coffee and flapjack this morning.   Espresso has less caffeine than drip coffee. Espresso is made by forcing hot water through ground coffee under high pressure. This limits the amount of time that the water is in contact with the coffee beans, thus extracting the flavor but leaving a lot of the caffeine behind.

The tax on tea even started a war between England and America . America was then part of the British Empire and ruled by England .

This was one of the causes of the American War of Independence.
