Mangel-wurzel macchiato to go? Travel back to the 1850s in the RHS Lindley Library, where at the height of London coffee addiction, our RHS detectives expose an underground world of adulterated coffee and unscrupulous retailers.

​These informal Lindley Live talks offer a 15-minute introduction to the treasures of our Library collection to liven up a lunch break.
