Trying the Aquarium Blend from a local-ish organic roaster - Charleston Coffee Roasters. They did not have it in whole bean, only in pre-ground, but its still quite good.

Local roaster for me also. They roast twice weekly and the beans usually arrive still warm from the ovens. Needless to say, immediately ground and enjoyed.

I have to confess that it was Charbucks Espresso Roast for me.

In my defense, I don't care for the locally roasted beans available at the coffee shop in town and I'm mostly not shopping elsewhere. And... this is New England. Home to Dunkin' Donuts. 'Nuff said.

Fortunately my local roasters coffee is fantastic.

Dunkin' Donut vs Krispy Kreme? (For donuts)

$139 USD - definitely a sip & savor - but man, it is good - I love smoky whiskeys. Going to keep it state side -

I've never had a Krispy Kreme. I don't really like donuts, though; best is just a plain cruller with no sugar or icing, i.e., crusty and not very sweet.

Tim Horton's is my preferred donut pusher.

Now I want a donut to go with my coffee.

Classic jam (strawberry jelly) donut for me, freshly baked.

Not a fan of the "greasy bagel" Krispy Kreme offerings.

Well, of course it is. Far superior to those southern confections. (Timmer's coffee, OTOH, is just not up to my standards. I know, sacrilege.)

That's why the Double Double is popular so you can't taste the coffee.

Ah, that explains way too much!

What I've never been able to fathom is why so many Canadians hold such a love and veneration of Tim Horton's Coffee. Seriously. I remember my first MVP Canadian Lead who had us bring her Tim Horton's Coffee every time we came to Redmond because "nothing else is as good." ???? And she was just down the road from a Peet's!

It's exactly the same as New Englanders and Dunkins. But I have to say that New England palates are generally terrible, so it's obviously something to do with how they're brought up. As for Peet's, however, it was never as good once it expanded outside the Bay Area. Not that it's not still good, but it lost that certain something.
