Two clues here running into each other. Word lengths (4)(6). Crushed coffee beans superior people used to serve drinks in foreign estate. Help needed please.

I think the second clue is 'used to serve tea in foreign estate.'
I have anag of estate, but it's two words usually.

Sorry, gave the game away there!
Should have said 'drinks', not 'tea'.

Thanks Nelson. It is a brilliant answer. Now, how about the coffee beans? I am stumped.

Same here. Going to take a bit of a break.

Hi jogamel - apparently crushed coffee beans can be called nibs, which also works for superior people - any good?

Perfect, oudemia. Thank you. Nelson will be pleased too.

Yes, I am.
Thanks oedema.

Nelson, have you sussed how to enter anything/everything yet?

I think so.
I think the phrase is six words:
3,4,7 (comma) 3,5,4.
This tells you how to move a word in the column clues, changing the order of the words helps solve the clue.
But, answers tend to clash with the across entries.
