Coffee and Summer Heat

Some people won’t drink a hot coffee on a hot summer day. I am not one of those people. A hot coffee works for me any day: the rich smell, the bitter taste and a little bit of heat. How about you? If we were having coffee I would ask you if prefer iced or… Continue reading Coffee and Summer Heat

Coffee and Wood Smoke

The wood smoke smell battles with the rich coffee scent for a dominant smell on the air currents.
