Dark Emu
by Bruce Pascoe

Dark Emu puts forward an argument for a reconsideration of the hunter-gatherer tag for pre-colonial Aboriginal Australians. The evidence insists that Aboriginal people right across the continent were using domesticated plants, sowing, harvesting, irrigating, and storing — behaviours inconsistent with the hunter-gatherer tag. A book that every Aussie should read.

Nespresso knows Australians love a delicious coffee with milk. That’s why they co-developed the Bianco Piccolo and Bianco Doppio blends with Australian Coffee Ambassador, Mitch Monaghan.

Bianco Doppio.

This blend, made from split-roasted Kenyan, Nicaraguan and Colombian beans, shows beautifully sweet caramel notes and a hint of fruitiness.

Don’t be fooled by its light roast and lack of bitterness: this is still a coffee that dances with flavour and offers surprising complexity. Along with caramel and fruit, there’s a touch of cereal, too, and a smooth, creamy texture when combined with milk. Perfect for lazy Sunday mornings paired with a romantic Australian tale.
