The book is in Google Books, which doesn't let you see the whole 
thing but does let you search for and find specific quotes, including 
the bit you quoted.

I don't know what "knew Martial Arts and were educated" mean--obvious 
they knew how to use weapons, and some of them told sagas and 
composed skaldic poetry. That's irrelevant to whether they drank 
coffee, and so far you have offered not a shred of evidence that they 
did. You are, of course, free to believe what you like, however 
baseless.
