WE LOVE COFFEE...


I don't know about you, but I love to drink coffee. Now, I'm not talking about 10 cups a day, but good enjoyable coffee. From Turkish, Cuban, Vietnamisee and Espresso to Brazilian Santos, Mexican Cuspic, and Sumatra. There are endless types and styles of coffee. Let's face it, there is a lot to be said about sitting at a sidewalk cafe drinking a great cup of coffee and reading a newspaper. Not from a computer, but a real honest to god newspaper.

Then there is also pairing your coffee with,chocolate, pastries, and fruits. I personally love coffees with a lot of tanin, and something chocolate. Please feel free to try it sometime.

Let's not forget the big secret to making great coffee is using good water, properly grinding the coffee and finding wheather you prefer the coffee maker, or the french press. I think a little self experimention is important. I don't feel there are rules, it's more about finding out what you like as far as coffee. Maybe buy a few different kinds of coffee. Various styles to suit the palate. By all means try mixing different coffees together, develop your own personal blend.

Most of all enjoy!
