Danes drink an average of 3-4 cups of coffee a day. 'Stærk kaffe' is often the default expectation in offices. The 'Nordic Roast' is typically lighter, but the coffee is brewed strong to highlight the bean's acidity. In Greenland (part of the Danish Realm), 'Kaffemik' is a social gathering where strong coffee and cake are served to celebrate milestones. The 'Sønderjysk kaffebord' features at least 21 types of cake, all washed down with plenty of 'stærk kaffe'.
