What coffee are you drinking?

Six One Six from Madcap Coffee in Grand Rapids. Bolder than some other beans I've recently bought, but lacking complexity. I'll probably blend it in the burr grinder along with their Inza, which has great aromatics.

While not producing a great cup, the sum was definitely better than the parts.

Peet's Sumatra- I like this better than Major Dickason's

I opened a bag of Counter Culture Chema from Uganda this morning. A very enjoyable medium bodied cup of joe.

Notes say stone fruit, cocoa, sweet. I pick up none of that, it just tastes good in my book.

That's for sure. Rather drink diluted bleach than Starbucks.

Well the question wasn't, "What good coffee are your drinking?" <img src="http://www.runemasterstudios.com/graemlins/images/devilgrin.gif" alt="Devilish" width="19" height="24"><!--graemlin::devil:-->

River City Roasters (Wheaton, IL) Narino Inga Mystic from Columbia. A very smooth medium roast.

El Jeffe (Ethiopian?) - makes a great cup

Bigly

Aricha from Ethiopia. Another oddball heirloom variety from somewhere in the Yirgacheffe region, bought from Detour Coffee. Very good but not quite as flavourful as other Yirgacheffes we've tried.

Would love to see that apple land in the jail yard.

While enjoying the paper and the news this morning, Peet's Sumatra.

Starbuck's Sumatra I like Peet's version better.) while reading all these wonderful political posts

Enjoying French roast this morning while reading a number of news reports. Trump's approval rating at an historical low at the six month mark, more lawyers now in the West Wing than personal, not a single significant bill signed to date by this president, the presidents own party calling for an investigation and supporting the current investigation and the president attacking the CBO even before their report due next week. All this as our GDP fails to move upward as promised.

Well, at least we have an infrastructure bill, a wall being built and paid for by Mexico, a healthcare bill that will not touch Medicare and Medicaid as promised. Oops!

Sunday has always been the best day to get caught up on the news.

Agree with you on Peet's Sumatra.

Serious question; what specifically did you enjoy about the news this day?

PH

The Yankees won!

Have you tried the Peet's Aged Sumatra?

I am drinking that now while enjoying the Padres game.

Never heard of it. PH also told me about a different Peet's I've never seen. I pretty much just the Major Dickason's and Sumatra.

Back to Two Brothers Indo Indo. I bought two bags yesterday with a roast date of 7/18. I've been trying a wide selections of beans the last few months, but this one is probably my current favorite.

Cafe Bustelo, while reading a very interesting New Yorker article

Starbuck's Columbian while enjoying some ridiculously funny political rantings.

Yes Huckabee was quite amusing with his ranting this morning.

Drinking Detour Cachoeira da Grama Brazil Espresso as I chuckle.
