Without a doubt, no thought required, my coffee has the perfume of a raspberry. Curious, I peek into my mug. The liquid inside is a merlot colour with an oil sheen on the top. My taste buds scream bitter raspberry as my java slides over my tongue and down my throat. Even the aftertaste is… Continue reading What’s a razzleberry?

Pies and Donuts
I’m on a pie and donut coffee flavour stretch and today is no different. The brand of my java is Bean around the World. The flavour is . . .

It’s… Continue reading I love peanut butter, but can it be coffee?

Sweet vanilla-caramel smell wars with the fragrance… Continue reading Sweet is at war with bitter
