What is the best coffee to purchase on or off-line?

Question

Ok, my sister is having her twenty-fourth birthday soon and we both adore coffee. However, I'm more of a simple black coffee drinker, so I'm unsure of what to get her.

Answer 1

The best coffees come from roasters who buy only the best mountain arabica beans and carefully blend and roast them for consistent quality and flavor. Then you need to have the freshest roasted beans you can find, and grind them just before brewing and drink it freshly brewed. I do take some of my morning brew with me in a thermos, and get much better coffee for much less cost than buying at a coffee shop.

Don Francisco has a catalog with a great selection of different beans, roasts, and flavors. Most importantly, I order a month's supply and have it delivered, so I know that I always have fresh roasted beans.

Answer 2

being in the hospitality indusry for a while i have come accross some of the best coffee.  the stand out are:

ILLY

SEGAFREDO

RUBIA

and VENEZIANO for me

All are very good and you guessed it pretty pricey.  If you really want learn about coffee and just how fresh it can be ring veneziano coffee in Richmond and speak to one of the guys there.  I belive they roast there beans on the premesis.  Some coffee companys buy pre roasted beans then bring it in to the country.  Speak to ROCKY.  good luck.
