SIGNIFICANCE OF KUMBAKONAM

INTRODUCTION
Kumbakonam is famous for many things like
temples, coffee hotels, sight-seeing places and
lovely homes etc. Among those things,
Kumbakonam Filter Coffee is considered as the
best coffee by the coffee lovers due to its rich taste
and aroma, and though Kumbakonam Degree
Coffee is a type of coffee
available in Kumbakonam, but, now, it is
available in many hotels throughout Tamil Nadu.
This coffee would be prepared using fresh cow’s
milk and no preservatives would be added in this
coffee in order to get the natural taste of the
degree coffee. Big personalities like Rajaji and
K.V.Jegannathan are lovers of Kumbakonam
Degree coffee, and they used to have several
cups of degree coffee in a day, due to its lingering
taste. Generally, people those who watch the
divine discourses and the divine songs on the
almighty in the temples would compare it similar to
the Kumbakonam Degree Filter Coffee, since the
spiritual work contributed by the spiritual people
tastes like the early morning hot coffee.
During the time of British rule, some British
personalities were got addicted to this
Kumbakonam filter coffee, and hence they have
appointed special Brahmin cooks exclusively for
preparing the degree coffee. Once if we travel to
Chenglepet, Singaperumal Koil, Villupuram and
Thindivanam areas, we can find lot of
Kumbakonam degree coffee shops in those areas.
Some of the people those who travel to
Tiruvannamalai from Chennai by hiring cars, would
refresh themselves by having a cup of Hot
Kumbakonam Fresh Filter coffee in the coffee
shops on their way. In most of the hotels, this
coffee would be served in brass tumblers in order
to increase its taste.
Though coffee is considered as injurious to health,
yet, many people who are addicted in drinking
coffee, prefers to drink it for several times a day. It
is advisable to drink only two cups of coffee in a
day, so that, no one would face from any health
issues by drinking this fantastic hot beverage
“COFFEE”. By drinking coffee, people normally
feel that they get some fresh energy and they also
believe that they are getting agility for some time.
As per an ancient proverb, even if we get an
opportunity to drink the divine nectar, “AMIRTHA”,
we must have to drink it only to a limited level, or
otherwise, the divine drink itself would turn into an
injurious poison, and hence based on this
wonderful proverb, let us have only a limited
quantity of Kumbakonam Degree filter coffee every
day, and let us live our life actively and cheerfully.
