Was he a great hockey player? Coffee is a personal taste thing. I think
Starbucks mostly tastes like a burned bean brew.

I really liked the old 7-11 coffee in the paper cup but it may have
just been a taste from the cup ;-)
It wasn't the same when they went to foam cups.


Best coffee I ever drank was a Circle K shop near here. Coffee was always
fantastic in the morning. I think they used good beans, and the machine
had perfect water temperature. Was consistently great.

By far the best coffee I ever had was at the Myrtle Bank Hotel in
Kingston Jamaica (1968). A close second is the Ritz in Naples Fla.
Same sort of taste and I have not had anything like it anywhere else.
Not a clue what they do. It is strong and rich without being burnt
tasting like Seattle coffee but "mellow" without a hint of sharpness.
It is a primo cup of joe.
I thought it was just a memory that I was embellishing for 40 years
until I had some at the Ritz.


Jamaica Blue Mountain are some of the worlds best beans.
