Coffee Game Strong with Starbucks Ethiopia Mocca Java

-


It was pure luck that I would spy a bag of Starbucks Ethiopia Mocca Java  sitting on the counter all by itself last Saturday while making an iced tea run.

 I didn't come for coffee, wasn't looking for anything new to try and stumbled upon what has been keeping me moving all week long.

 The first thing that caught my eye was the packaging.  I thought, "have I tried this coffee before."  And then I thought, "No, actually I've never had this coffee."

Then I noticed the note that said "limited time only." 

 Apparently this blend is only available for a short period of time at select Starbucks stores.

 It's smoky and bold and can really stand up to a splash of heavy cream.  For the true coffee lover.

 9.99 for an 8.8 ounce bag.

 I hope you're lucky too and find this coffee before it's gone.

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
