Sent from "Coffee Heaven" - Starbucks Casi Cielo is Back (But, Not For Long)!

-



I'm always excited when Starbucks breaks out the Casi.  Casi Cielo, that is.

 There was an awful rumor stirring about six months ago, that they were going to discontinue it.

 I'm glad it wasn't true.

 This is one of the first gourmet coffees that I truly fell in love with.  Like a favorite cousin.  You're very happy when they come to visit, always enjoy your time, understand when they have to leave and look forward to their return.

 It is so wonderful and satisfying with a rich flavor and chocolate undertones.  I, personally, think they should develop a truffle flavored with this stuff.

 As with all good things, it will come to an end.  So, don't delay - get yours today!

 Also available in K-Cup and Verismo pods.

 I'll take mine freshly brewed in my automatic Capresso with one brown sugar cube and a tiny splash of low fat milk.

 "Almost Heaven."

It's Not Your Mother's Eight O'Clock Coffee - Columbia Single Serve Cup

You may not have noticed, but Eight O'Clock Coffee (which I used to refer to as Eight O'Clock Bean Coffee) has experienced a new attitude. There's new packaging and now there is even an Eight O'Clock K-Cup(R). I enjoy and delight in experiencing artisan roasted coffee and I can ride the "third wave" as good as the next person, but sometimes I just want to remember the way things used to be. So, the Eight O'Clock K-Cup  is the perfect way to enjoy a coffee that's always had a special place in my heart - but with a new twist. All these new single-serve coffees are making me lazy. But, don't worry, I'm an equal opportunity coffee-lover. Here's to the weekend!

All Time Favorite Coffee Jingles

I have consumed a lot of coffee over the last couple of decades, but it's mainly through "trial and error," "word of mouth," or "pure luck," that I found those I've enjoyed the most. And, of course, the folks who reach out and let me know about the great coffees that are out there. But with micro roasters becoming more and more popular, and grocery store coffee being talked about less, even though many supermarket varieties are very good, I can't help but remember some of those jingles and television commercials that remain etched in my mind. Some of my favorite coffee jingles: "Good to the Last Drop" (TM) (Maxwell House) "Richness Worth A Second Cup" (TM) (Yuban) "The Best Part of Waking Up, Is Folgers In Your Cup" (TM) And, last but not least, drumroll. . . .my all-time favorite: "Fill It To the Rim With Brim" (TM) (Brim Decaffeinated Coffee) (special thanks to my sister for remin
