Ethiopian Harar Coffee from Buna Mobile Roasting Company

I'm always impressed with the flavors found in a properly roasted Ethiopian Coffee and this Ethiopian Harar Coffee from Buna Mobile Roasting Company is no exception.

Buna Mobile roasting company is a small batch roaster that specializes in roasting for fund raisers. You can find more information about their charities and fundraising on their website.

Looking at the beans waiting to be ground some are at the City roast level while others are City+.

Once ground, the coffee has a pleasant aroma of sweet blueberries and as water is introduced for the pour-over the same sweet blueberry aroma fills the room.

From the cup, the first sips are sweet, yet at the same time tart with a full bodied syrupy mouthfeel. The aftertaste is a bit acidic, but I'll call it well balanced because it's supported by the sweet blueberry notes.

The flavors are rich, bold and intense. Hot, the coffee tastes like blueberry syrup with a hint of chocolate. As the coffee cools in the cup it takes on a rich chocolate covered blueberry flavor. The natural sweetness in this coffee is remarkable. It's the sweetest coffee I have reviewed.

I feel this Ethiopian Harar Coffee would be amazing to sip with a chocolate desert or as an after dinner desert all by itself. The City-City+ roast level seems perfect for these beans.

Eight O'Clock Coffee The Original

This sample of Eight O'Clock Coffee , "The Original", came right off the supermarket shelf the other day. It's a medium roast blend that included a large volume of broken and partial beans. Actually, I was surprised by the volume of broken beans as I poured each sample into the grinder. When the bag was opened, to the nose there were rich aromas of toast and coffee, while the pour-over aromas were a mix of cocoa and warm bread. I brewed and sampled four cups of The Original to be sure of my tasting notes. On the Eight O'Clock web site they list this coffee as "sweet, fruity and well balanced." Like most other coffee reviews that's not exactly what I found. In my samples there were semi-sweet flavors of toast, nuts and earth, with a hint of cocoa as the coffee cooled. I found the coffee clean and well balanced with a medium bodied, slightly dry mouth feel. Overall, The Original, from Eight O'Clock coffee brewed a flavorful rewarding cup

Tryst No. 2 Robusto Brandy E-Cigar

Featuring e-juice made in the USA, these Tryst e-cigars are a pretty sweet deal. The No. 2 Robusto Brandy is another great example of a cigarette alternative that give me cigar-like satisfaction indoors or wherever I can't smoke a real cigar. Like the last Tryst reviews, I've been puffing on the No. 2 the past two days while writing. Other than its brandy flavor, this Brandy model is just like the the other No. 2's. The tapered head makes it easy to hold hands-free between your teeth, the wrapper is durable showing no signs of wear, it produces a large volume of vapor and the brandy flavored e-juice tastes fantastic. You probably know I'm not much of a flavored cigar person, but these American made e-juices from Tryst have fantastic flavor, this brandy is really close to tasting like brandy. I've tried other flavored e-cigarette products in the past and the flavors don't compare at all to the Tryst e-cigar flavors. Add together the great taste, the
