Percol founder Brian Chapman said; “The Duke and Duchess of Cambridge’s first Royals tour has certainly helped the popularity of the Royal family and as a British company we support British traditions. It is our aim to bring our award-winning British coffee to every street in the UK, whether a palace or a humble home, and we’re going to be doing just that throughout the rest of the year.”

In other findings, 40% Britons said the smell that would be most likely to stop them in the street and make them smile was freshly-brewed coffee (40%); the smell of bacon sizzling in a pan came second
