Coffee kind of reminds me of wine…it’s amazing the differences you can get within the same “varietal.” Thanks for the reviews!
QOTD: I will add garlic to just about anything. Also cilantro, which is so unique, I love finding ways to use it.

I’m really enjoying the side by side comparisons.
Wow, that Timothy’s one sounds really bad.
I’m a big fan of seasoned salt during the summer. Great on burgers, corn on the cob, etc.

I like the Timothy’s Columbia La Vereda.
As for favourite spice – I like Clubhouse Brand blend – Montreal Steak Spice. It’s good on all types of meat!

There sure is more “bang for the buck” on the side-by-side comparisons. You mentioned “cleansing the palette” and it made me wonder if there is something you could use to cleanse your palette between coffees; perhaps some ice cream.
qotd? As far as spices go: onion and garlic. There isn’t anything that isn’t better with onion or garlic, but I am with you on the cayenne pepper, I do like to add cayenne to most meats that I eat.

I use to like the K-Cup coffee but it is not as good as when it was a year ago, I bought the better coffee maker also and now I do not even use it. The coffee is not that good any more and the price is to high.

I love me a mild coffee. Mmmm.
QOTD: I love garlic… and a coarse sea salt. My hubby… loves pepper. Not me though. Spicy burns my mouth off.

Whole Foods is great! Unbelievable store. Agree with the Blackberries. Their killer, esp with cream. Here’s a study saying that getting the five heart smart fruits a day are great but they do no good with out the dairy fat. http://www.mdpi.com/1660-4601/6/10/2626 .
Favorite spice: I would have to say Nutmeg. It can cover up a good amount of cooking errors, adding it to coffee is like adding a touch of liquor, and they say if you have enough of it . . .
