Seattles best coffee
 

We are going on a boat that serves this stuff. Is it drinkable. I took a sip
of the other stuff Seattle is famous for and had to throw it away after 1
sip. Yuk!

What, you didn't care for "Charbucks"?

Bad news for you, Jim. Seattle's Best Coffee is a division of
Starbucks.

There are usually a couple of varieties of coffee brewing on any given
day at a Starbucks. Most people don't like them all. Some are almost
over-roasted (aka charbucks) and are an acquired taste. See if you can
sample some Cafe Verona if you want to give Starbucks another chance
sometime.

SBC blends tend to be a little more middle-of-the-road, and if your
taste runs to Folgers, or etc you *might* like it a little better than
the specific variety of coffee you sampled from Starbucks.

Coffee is like icecream. Lots of flavors. If you go to Baskin and
Robbins, order some "ice cream", and they hand you a licorice cone you
may or may not like it. The trick is to figure out whether you don't
like B&R ice cream, or don't like licorice.


Boating tie in:

Best coffee in the world is available a short walk from the marina on
Thetis Island in British Columbia.

"Best in the world" is a heck of a claim to make, but I can assure
anybody that likes a decent cup of coffee that their coffees are an
experience set entirely apart from the consumption of merely "good"
coffee.

I can handle good strong coffee like espresso and French roast. Trips to
Jamaica got me hooked on high mountain and Blue Mountain coffee. Good
restaurant coffee is OK too.
Thanks for the heads up. I'll see if Starbucks serves Seattle's best
locally.

The Cafe Verona mentioned by Chuck is my favorite of the Starbucks coffees.
It's one that is always on the Christmas list for the kids.
