Wow, this list ought to be the Coffee Obsessors' list (plus a minor nodtoward Rivendells).
Thanks for the very interesting information, which I shall peruse and digest at leisure -- I think one of my problems is letting coffee steep too long; I tend to go away and forget it. (BTW, I find Costco's San Francisco blend pretty good; it's very reasonably priced, too.) Parting (for now) anecdote: way back in the late '60s and early '70s we lived, not only in Kenya, but smack dab in the middle of a square-miles-huge coffee plantation. Back then coffee covered huge tracts o' land just outside of Nairobi (we were 7 miles exactly from downtown's NW limits, where the fire station was, as I knew well from timing myself inbound). And, Kenya had wonderful dairy products, including hugely rich cream. Guess what we drank in the morning, children and adults? Taster's Choice (tm) with that original powdered "creamer". I've long since repented and turned my life around.
