Pink Pumpkin Vanilla Pumpkin Flavour Coffee

The name of this coffee made me wonder if the hot liquid in my cup would have a pink hue. It doesn’t, of course, but it is a lovely deep brown. The scent is bitter with notes of a woodsy vanilla. On second sniff I realize the woodsy notes are in fact seasonal spices with… Continue reading Pink Pumpkin Vanilla Pumpkin Flavour Coffee

Weekend Coffee Share

First we look. The liquid in my mug is a burnt brown that fades into shades of cinnamon and peanut. Even in this summer heat I can see a faint mist rising. Then we smell. I take a deep inhale. The dominant smell is fruity and tangy yet sweet and raspberry. This smell is so… Continue reading Weekend Coffee Share

A sandwich in a coffee cup

There it is, the ice cream sandwich. I close my eyes and remember that long ago taste. It is a creamy rich taste that is smooth and sweet. The iciness of the ice cream is set against the soft cold wafer-like cookies that sandwich it. The cocoa flavour is strong and sugary. It is creamy… Continue reading A sandwich in a coffee cup

Coffee News over Coffee Cake & Coffee

The cake is moist and sweet. Each bite reveals vanilla, brown sugar, cinnamon and the crunch of nuts. The drizzle settled down into the layers of crumble right down into the cake and it adds a rich caramel-y flavour. It all blends together to create a delicious flavour. It even looks pretty on my plate.… Continue reading Coffee News over Coffee Cake & Coffee

Pass the coffee pot please

The smell is sweet and bitter all at once, but it also more than that. As I inhale the warmth of my coffee I acknowledge the smell of marshmallow and chocolate. I have heard of rocky road bars and rocky road ice cream but not rocky road coffee! I wonder how the flavour holds up… Continue reading Pass the coffee pot please

A bite of French toast

Instantly I can smell soft maple notes as well as cinnamon and I am not sure if I imagine a buttery underlay or if it is really there. The air around this cup of coffee actual tastes like a bite of French toast. When that dark liquid flows over my taste buds I am pleased… Continue reading A bite of French toast

A Blackstrap Coffee

What is your coffee flavour this morning? I am having an original roast with a teaspoon of Blackstrap molasses. It adds a nice robust and slightly bitter taste to my cup that I enjoy on occasion. If we were having coffee I would smile and ask, “How are you? How have you been?” If we… Continue reading A Blackstrap Coffee
