I must say, Turkish airlines is not only one of the best airlines I've flown but also has possibly the best coffee.
I have just returned from a business trip of a week to the Balkans; for anyone who is a coffee lover, and who doesn't know the area, this is coffee paradise.
Influenced by (and - at different times - ruled by) both by the Ottoman and Habsburg empires, the region is home to an ancient (and excellent) coffee culture.
Every coffee shop serves excellent coffee, and one serve superb coffee.
My interpreter was mortified the she brought me to her favourite coffee shop last Saturday - stressing that it served amazing espresso - to find that the gleaming chrome machine was malfunctioning. Before we returned on Sunday, she had already phoned them on three separate occasions to ensure that the temperamental machine had been repaired.
It had. The espresso they served me was excellent.
Some of the best coffee I’ve tasted was in Sarajevo.
Looks like we're both on the same page, today. I made a pot of Kings Coast Ethiopian this morning. Haven't had this particular of their before, but this one's pretty good.Sipping a mug of very pleasant Ethiopian coffee.

So y'all don't like my new choice in coffee? For shame. Anyway, I have something new coming soon that you may like a little better.
In the meantime, I have been taking a trip down memory lane in this thread. We (myself, @Scepticalscribe @mobilehaathi @Shrink @Kurwenal and a few others) were just having the most wonderful times together about 4 and a half years ago. I do miss those times here.
Enjoyed an Ethiopian coffee this morning.
Same here. We're down to the last few scoops of, (doubt there is enough for a full pot tomorrow). Fortunately, I received a new shipment of freshly roasted coffee Friday! I'll have to see what strikes my fancy when I set up the brewer overnight.
I'm starting to wonder if Starbucks serves the same stuff in Europe that they do in the States?
If we are talking coffee, you start with a bean and brew it. It's not that hard.Is the implication that European coffee houses have special sources of beans not available in the States, or have a superior means of brewing coffee (not espresso- I drink coffee)? Anyway, I'm not wanting to fight, just wondering.
