    I prefer the Powerglide myself, you taste more coffee and less roast, but I've never had bad coffee from them. I found an action shot of Chris, one of the baristas, (I wonder if they want to be called that) throwing at Monterey in July, the owner is Larry, the second seated to the right:

    Oooooh...that's the stuff that gets eaten and shat out by a tropical civet?

    Yummy.

    What other predigested gourmet delights can we find? Honey? Bee spit!

    I'm a fan of Jamaican Blue Mtn myself. It's pricey so I limit myself to three or four pounds a year.

    I'm an Ethiopian Yirgacheffe fan as well. Will have to try this one. And as another coffee snob, I am reminded of the bumper sticker I spotted in Seattle "FRIENDS DON'T LET FRIENDS DRINK STARBUCKS"

    Speaking of Louisiana, has anybody tried coffee with chicory? It's something they did to make the bitter coffee that they had back when stretch and taste smoother.

    That is the only type of coffee my late grandmother would buy. I grew up drinking it. Now days I drink the regular stuff.

    On another note, you've never had coffee until you drink some that's made by someone in or has served in the Navy.

    Yes I have.

    My favorite place is a locally owned roaster (yes roasted on the spot). All fair trade, organic, bird friendly, and shade grown. It is so fresh it has to be slapped.

    My wife swears by Dunkin Dougnuts coffee. She just recently ordered a 5 lb bag from their website. DD is not in Missouri although, my wife has asked them to open up a shop near our house. She has also asked friends and relatives from the northeast to send coffee for birthdays, etc.
