I'm looking to add another one to my collection. What are some suggestions?

Right now I have Blue Mountain from Jamaica and some Huckleberry coffee from Yellowstone,

They aren't bad for when I'm in a rush. The other two I grind fresh every time

Throw away the Kuerig cups

Buy single sourced coffee. I like La Colombe, they have lots

Use a Chemex

I rarely use them. I bought them when my coffee grinder broke last month

I've been looking to buy one of those tho

I just looked and saw they have a couple la colombe locations in town, I'll have to check it out

I prefer the farm raised frozen Barrumundi fish coffee to the "fresh gulf fish" coffee. Apparently Lillette serves it.

my suggestion is to buy whole beans and grind fresh.

Are you speaking about the "gulf" barrumundi in particular?

One of my college roommates started this company. He is a pretty huge coffee nerd and also wants to do good things. Goes to the villages, sets them up with sustainable operations, ensures they get fair prices, and maintains really high quality beans with solid roasting.

Find someone nearby that roasts beans on a daily basis. Drink them all until you find what you like.

I am 36 years old and have never drank a cup of coffee, ever. I don't drink anything hot, not even hot chocolate.

I do make my wife a pot of coffee each morning, but don't consider indulging at all.
