Just because this video needs attention, being the guinea pig and all…..nice work Jason! I really enjoy the Christmas Blend….its a little on the strong side I find for my everyday coffee, but its nice for a little treat. I’ve found stirring my creamer into this coffee with a candy cane actually gives it a very tasty (and seasonal!) flavor!

I enjoyed the episode. It has a raw, low-key operation kind of feel.

@Shanda – Thanks Shanda – I have so much fun preparing and thinking about how and where I wanted to do it. It’s funny thinking about it now.

LOL…! Jason, you are just awesome! This was my first time watching your first episode, and even for your first filming and coffee test, you were fabulous! I really like how you use your hands… that’s really quite intriguing and eye-catching! haha… I don’t know how else to explain it. I LOVE your descriptive words…!! Kudos for that! Don’t ever under-estimate the importance of that since we (as your viewers and audience) can’t taste what you’re experiencing. The words you used like “sparkling acidity that sparkles across the tongue” and “bitter film” are perfect! I haven’t ever seen someone describe and wax eloquence on coffee quite the way you do. It’s also obvious in your demeanor that you are very earnest, sincere, and genuine (LOL… do all those words mean the same thing?!?) in your postings and I really appreciate that very much. Thanks Jason! Warmest Regards, Sarita*

Great to see where you came from! This is TheMontanaMuse. I sent you a message under a different user name, so that might be a little confusing. I love the christmas blend from starbucks and I get their seasonal syurps like Gingerbread, etc. Do you like any of their coffee syrups, or prefer cream, or sugar? Just a little curious. Hope to see you live again!
