Instead of the past experiments using a wine barrel, Ceremony Coffee Roasters have added a twist to the most recent experiment by using a bourbon barrel instead. This experiment consists of 150lbs [...]

Ceremony Coffee roasters have outdone themselves again! My first experiences with the BCS series was batch #2, Mexico Santa Teresa stored in a Cabernet Franc barrel. It was unbelievably amazing tasting. I can’t forget the aroma either — Raspberry filled doughnuts, wine, grapes, mild hints of the barrel it was stored in. Just beautiful! I [...]

I first heard about Regular Coffee when it was announced on Kickstarter. The folks behind Regular Coffee were looking for some help to fund the start-up of this new venture. I immediately backed the project because why wouldn’t I? It wouldn’t be long before I retracted my backing status when I dove into learning more [...]

Back in January I got an email from fellow coffee bloggers/lovers (@CornerOfTheCafe, @Randy_Levine, @MaxwellAMooney, @SoundGuyAndy, @Jennifer_Chen, & @_Simple_Simon) about doing a coffee exchange. I was already sold on the idea the minute I read the email. Within a couple of days we all had the details straightened out and had broken into two teams of [...]

Nothing says a new year like some new coffees from Barefoot Coffee. Along with the cold brew they sent me which I reviewed a few weeks ago, they also sent me two coffees. One being from Guatemala which I’ll be reviewing today, and the other hailing El Salvador. Thoughts Chemex: 30/402g • Grind beans on [...]

I’m ringing in the new year with a second take for Barefoot Coffee’s cold brew. Last year was the first time trying their cold brew since it released and unfortunately it wasn’t that appealing. The cold brew carried smoky characteristics that left me with an unsatisfying impression. Thankfully the folks at Barefoot were kind enough [...]

This will now be my second coffee from Blue Bottle Coffee this week. I am already in love with the Ethiopia Kemgin I just had so I am pretty excited about trying this Ethiopia Nekisse. I already know it will be completely magical because I’ve already had a taste or two of it. Thoughts Kalita [...]

I don’t know how long it’s been honestly that I’ve known about Blue Bottle Coffee, but more so, I don’t know why it took me so long to grab some of their coffee. Some days it can be overwhelming how many roasters are out there today. Though I wouldn’t call it a bad thing as [...]

I figured I’d resurface from the rock I’ve been hiding under and give out another update. I am still sick. Still not feeling any worse than my last update, but still sick nonetheless. I feel like I have the flu, but I am also feeling some cold symptoms as well. Wouldn’t that suck to have [...]
