Rockets from Rosarita ~ Pistol & Burns
As reviewed by: D. and M. Burnett |
Besides being very, very, brown, "Rockets from Rosarita" is
very hot when prepared as recommended. It does, however, get
cold if left for a long time (unless you have a Decent
Coffee Cosy).
We found that this light, smooth coffee was a mellow way to
ease into the morning, and we liked the pleasant, sweet taste
it left in our mouths.
It had a round, smooth taste without heaviness or bitterness.
The aftertaste was rich with a hint of sweetness making it a
great choice for a breakfast coffee.
Rockets from Rosarita is to coffee what Burl Ives is to music;
pleasant, inoffensive and brings a smile to your face, but doesn't
exactly grab you and say "wassup". |
Henry's Blend ~ Seattle's Best
Reviewed by: M. Schmidt |
Henry's Blend has a rich, strong flavour. It doesn't introduce
itself meekly but demands your attention. I prefer to have it
with a little sweetener like honey or maple syrup (pure Canadian
maple syrup that is).
When the kids wake you up at 7:00 a.m. on Christmas morning, this
coffee has the goods to make your tastebuds follow suit.
