Gourmet

[erebrandir]

Okay, the coffee beans I bought yesterday at the Kaffeeklastsch totally redeem all the suffering. The difference between the grocery brands of coffee (even Eight o'Clock Coffee, which is the best) and these gourmet beans is dramatic. With the grocery beans, the coffee is hot, wet, caffeinated, and consistent - I used to say that was all I needed -

Coffee shop coffee beans are usually better.

I've seen the 8 O Clock coffee at Target before, is is actually good? I've thought about buying it but never have...

Yes, it's good (but not great, as I say here). It's consistently good and a good value. It was rated the best whole bean coffee recently by Consumer Reports, I think. I usually keep some around for those days when I'm in too big a hurry to actually enjoy my coffee. It's also the only thing my mom will drink, for some reason. She says the gourmet coffee I buy is too strong, or too bitter, or something.

I love BOTH coffee and tea, but the smell of coffee is very enticing, I agree.

[erebrandir]

Yes indeed! What kind of tea do you like?

[orange_juice18]

Green tea, tea lattes, rooibos, bubble tea (boba! MMMM), chai, flavored teas, pretty much the whole shebang.

Sounds good!
