Blue Mountain; expensive but when the shop near my office (bagelz) has it once a week it's worth it to get a cup...
My buddy brought back some local coffee from the Domenican in Nov. that stuff was killer; bold yet fairly smooth. He also learned that 8 bags of coffee is the limit; more than that and they search your luggage  |

I drink 90% Dunkin Donuts. for gourmet stuff i brew at home I like two kinds. Hawaian Kona and jamaica Blue Mountain. I have the beans fedexed to me directly from the source both in hawai and jamaica. I pretty much have decided that i would prefer two bags of kona to one bag of blue Mountain (Blue mountain is like $40 a pound while i get the Kona for about $17 delivered)
the big trick with very expensive coffee is don't scrimp to save money. If you spend $40 a pound for coffee , don't use less , use an extra scoop if anything. If you are going to splurge on good coffee , go for it whole hog.
bottom line is that I can do without all the fancy stuff if I have to but if they close Dunkin Donuts , I'll cry every morning forever.

You want the best you got to pay the big bucks. That is why I drink tea now. At least you know it is the real thing. You could always go there and get it. It would be cheaper.  |

Consider yourself lucky you can probably hit a good coffee shop with a stone throw. Down this way there are no Dunkin Donuts, Starbucks, or any other chains within 60-miles......

Yea, but I think you'll find it pretty boring for regular coffee. Makes a decent espresso, but as it's not fresh you get limited crema.
