I like Coffee. The thing is, once you have had great coffee it gets hard to drink that St#rb#cks stuff again. I recently was in Jamaica and had their Blue Mountain Coffee. Probably the best coffee I had ever had. It could be because it might have been the freshest coffee I ever drank, none-the-less, it was great and I want more. I was wondering to myself, where else does coffee flourish?
