I'm going to be checking out this Alterra coffee. I've become a little snobby with coffee over the last year or two. I don't know where it came from, but I can't be satisfied with some coffee shops.

Hopefully it lives up to the reputation I'm giving it here! :lol:

good luck!

I should probably get through the three bags of beans I already have first... :cool:

I cant wait to walk up tomorrow just so I can make a huge french press worth of witches brew and drink the entire thing and be a happy, caffeinated boy. Coffee is so beautiful, almost as beautiful as zee fuzz. I guess they kind of go hand in hand. Wait a sec, I am still up and typing right now because i drank some coffee after dinner, oh yeah, i forgot I am a maniac.

Coffee and fuzz go together perfectly.

When I was working as a Medical Transcriptionist, I would get to Halifax as early as possible. I'd go into a small, locally owned coffee shop, get giant cup of coffee (or espresso-based drink), and walk around listening to Circa Survive's "Blue Sky Noise". The bass on that album relaxes me so much. Rat central.

nothing stops you from making coffee at 4AM.

but with all things, there are consequences.

Have you tried the black and tan from them? She beckon's to me, and I need a reference.

I've had the Black and Tan, but I don't like it as much? :idk:

Over the Black and Tan I'd recommend the Voltaire. I think you'd like it more.

I've probably had every Alterra coffee other than the varieties that are in small batches, since I'm no longer in Milwaukee. Used to live a block from their roastery. Tried to get a job as an apprentice roaster but the competition is fierce and I didn't have retail/cash register jockey in my blood.
