I think Seattles Best is better, but I still drink Starbucks when we go to Barnes and Noble.

Seattle's Best is owned by Starbucks.
After 20 years, I have it worked out. Regular whole bean deliveries of Peet's; they roast the beans the day before they ship. I like the fruity notes in their New Guinea variety. I use an expensive burr grinder, and grind just before preparation. Grinding just before brewing is 99% of the quality battle, right there. |

I didn't know that. Their coffees sure taste different.

Merc, we laid hold of some Tanzanian Peaberry at the Trader Joe's. I was very impressed. It's layered, complex. Medium-darkish roast.

The Tanzanian Peaberry is sometimes offered at the Starbucks. I haven't tried all 'bucks coffees but that there is the best I've ever had out of them.

This morning I am enjoying a delightful Sumatra bean purchased in bulk at Costco last night. Very smooth and wonderfully aromatic. Just a splash of cream, thank you.

Dammit I'm in a world of coffee snobs!
I drink Folgers, the kind in that new stay-fresh plastic container. That's pretty fancy* fer these parts. (*it's fancy, but it's not fancy schmantzy)

I see what you did there.
Can I offer you a cuppa Folgers? It's mountain grown!
