Favorite Coffee?

Peet’s Major Dickason

you in Prairieville your tag says? Me too, where is a local roaster you go to around here?

Cafeciteaux in BR and they do a subscription service.

Also a few of the roasters in NOLA do the same. Usually have it on your doorstep a couple days after they roast.

We like Parish coffees. The medium and dark roasts are both great.

Community dark roast no cream no sugar

This. I’ve had a lot of coffee but a cup of freshly brewed Community dark is hard to beat

River Road Coffee is good and local as well. They are setup near Siegen and Airline in BR.

Have been digging French Truck Festin, but typically get French Truck Dark Roast.

Try to find local roasters that you can get fresh-roasted beans, and if at all possible try to grind your own whole beans. After couple of weeks the beans lose a lot of luster and change flavor. Around BR you have:

Cafeciteaux
French Truck (New Orleans but they have a BR location)
Brew HaHa
Reve (Lafayette)
Titan Coffee Co.

And I'm sure there are some I'm forgetting. You'll learn over time what origins and roasts you really enjoy. I typically prefer medium roasts over dark roasts, and I really love most Ethiopian single origin coffees. Not long ago French Truck had an Ethiopian coffee they called Kossa Geshe and it was amazing.

Nespresso Odacio is amazing, but you have to have the nespresso verturo machines.

If you want high grade coffee get a chemex. Likely your office coffee maker has a hot water tap. use that.

I buy La Colombe Coffee. Or intelligentsia coffee. Both great and the stated flavors ring true in the brew.

Make sure you get your measurements right and you can just repeat the brew easily.

If you really enjoy black coffee thats not burned it starts with good coffee thats not burned or over roasted , a burr grinder, and a chemex. There really is nothing like it.
