Coffee built Colombia—and helped shape the modern world.
From mist-covered Andean fincas to bustling cafés in New York, Paris, and Tokyo, Beans of Destiny tells the epic, untold story of how a humble bean became Colombia's greatest symbol and one of the world's most powerful cultural forces.
Spanning centuries of history, this narrative-driven book reveals how coffee forged communities, financed a nation, survived wars and economic collapse, and was reborn through innovation, specialty culture, and global demand. Along the way, it introduces missionaries and farmers, rebels and baristas, scientists and storytellers—people whose lives were shaped by coffee and who, in turn, shaped its destiny.
Written with the sweep of a historical epic and the intimacy of human stories, Beans of Destiny is not just about coffee. It is about resilience, identity, and the surprising ways everyday rituals connect us across borders.
Perfect for readers of narrative history, cultural nonfiction, and anyone who has ever wondered what lies behind a truly great cup of coffee.
