#023 Kit the Rooster

"Kit is an early bird who is always first in the coffee queue (sometimes while the staff are still larking around tying their aprons on). He proudly takes his single-origin, micro-roasted coffee black, and will gladly extol the virtues of every sharp, creamy and earthy note of his experience. Most days he then launches into offering advice to one and all in the coffee shop about their order, how to savour it and how best to express the joy they should feel when taking their morning hit of caffeine. All in all, he’s the kind of cock even the most patient and dedicated barista wishes would choke on his cornflakes and not make it to the next dawn." (Kerry Lord, Edward's Menagerie Birds, 2015)
