I'm a fan of the Ethiopian Coffee Company myself; prompt, professional service, and friendly enthusiasts staffing the premises.
Was that the article titled "spilling beans" or something along those lines? I read such an article yesterday morning. Not sure if it's the same one.
Don't believe I've tried that one. It's a South American blend. I tried several with my own money and ordered various lots of them for work. Very underwhelming. The Black Cat espresso beans were alright if not a bit too dark for my tastes.
A nice cup of Costa Rican with honey is setting on my coffee table.
Two things I want to share before bed. Cold brew espresso is delicious. Cold brew Turkish is even more delicious. We had a sweltering day yesterday, Sunday, and I decided to use some beans which tasted a bit stale. Cold brew isn't that fussy like traditional brewing.
Wonderful stuff.
Wonderful stuff.
Enjoyed my coffee today; a standard café au lait, followed by a cappuccino.
Enjoying my afternoon cup of coffee, Costa Rican ready to pour from LC.
Well, do enjoy.
For a very long time, Costa Rican coffee was what I preferred to all others.
In London this week. Found a nice little coffee and nuts shop around Piccadilly. Bought some Ethiopian beans.

Must say that I rather like Piccadilly.
Enjoy your Ethiopian coffee.
Sorry, I missed this last week. I've only ever bought my green beans from Sweet Maria's. I've had a consistently good experience (and they're also close to home), so I've not had much reason to try other places.
I have the afternoon coffee in the LC and a sour plum danish to go with it.
Coffee with a sour plum danish? Sounds great!
Sounds delicious; and, yes, I love love sour fruit........plums are in season just now, so should be very tasty.
I personally love them in dessert. The sour-sweet profile is delicious. It's hard to choose between sour plum cobbler or crumble or sour plum tart. This year's golden plums are fantastic, too.
Oh, golden plums, yum.
Agree on the sweet-sour taste profile - I love it.
Try roasting them sometime - a little brown sugar, and er, butter..........quite sublime.
Yum.
Sounds divine. I love blue cheese (which one are you tucking into?) and German rye (yum), dates - gorgeous - and, but, of course, French press coffee.......
Oh, dear.
One doesn't know whether to suppress a snort of guilty laughter (and assert one's liberal credentials) or reprove you for even entertaining such er.......thoughts.
You've said this before. I'm not entirely sure you're joking.
