Coffee SNOBS of the world UNITE

If ya drink preground coffee do not bother with this

OK OK OK here is the story........ I amma confirmed coffee snob... I have a melita coffee maker that grinds the beans as well as makes coffee... it has a gold filter....

I drink only what I consider the best coffee mostly from ethiopia, arabia and kenya......... when I am feeling RICH I drink jamican blue mountain from mavis banks estates.......... that stuff is for the rich between 35 and 40 bucks us money..

The others are in the 10 to 13 dollor range. ethiopian yergachev, and sidamo mmmmmmmm smooth and strong....

aribian mocha.sanini...... also smooth and strong.

Nothing and I mean nothing touches jamican blue coffee...........

What coffees do you like??? PLEASEEEEEEEE no flavored atrocieties here. lmao...

Country and coffee name please.....

Lavazza is good stuff. Blue Peaberry Jamacian is really good! but $$$

I get mine from a local coffee shop chain in SLC called Beans and brews. They have some really excellent roasts. And it's all Fair Trade certified.

As for me....Columbian: French or a french italian blend called expresso fritalia...Both of which are kick ass

My pop in law sent me a pound of that Jamaica Blue coffee earlier this year and it was incredible.

Gevalia's Cosa Rica blend is also really good.

When I indulge myself on coffee, I buy the Wild Oats brand Colombian...most of Colombia's coffee is sold to the big coffee firms and not considered to be anything beyond mediocre, but there are a few brands of 100% Colombian coffee that are worth taking a look at and this is one of them.

Most of the African roasts seem to me to be a bit too muddy flavoured, but Ethiopian coffee stands out to me.

I've also heard tale of a coffee out of Australia that is harvested in an interesting way. They say that kangaroos will only eat coffee beans when they are at their peak of flavor and ripeness, so these people go around and look through kangaroo poo and pick out the undigested coffee beans (the bean is the middle part of the coffee "cherry" -- the outside is digested, the middle part isn't) -- this stuff sells for over 100 USD a pound because these kangaroos are supposed to know their shit (pun intended) when it comes to coffee.

I've never drunk the stuff, though.

Cheers,

Coffee Lovin' Myrrander

The best one of Jacobs. Our raw coffee by experts are carefully selected and composed to this fine Spizenkaffee (babelfish didn't know what that meant) . Careful roasting wakes the whole flavour of the beans and gives to the coronation/culmination its unmistakable spoiling flavour. The opened packing carefully lock and coolly keep, then the flavour remains long.

There's a program called babelfish that will translate things for you....you can find it here: Link
