Counter Culture Coffee

I ran out of coffee!! But that was inevitable since I temporarily stopped one of my coffee subscriptions given how much coffee I had already from Taiwan. I picked up this bag from Counter Culture Coffee at a local grocery store. It’s a blend of Ethiopian beans.

The aromas of flowers and fruits was amazing. Making my latte, I was surprised at how citrusy each sip was. The citrus flavors also blended well with the smooth chocolate flavor after taste. To be honest, it was hard to not just sip it. I ended up needing a second cup of latte to really feel satisfied. It was really that delicious.

Panther Coffee

Marche’s Drink Trade Cofee selection comes from Panther Coffee. I’m excited to drink these single origin beans from Guatemala. Panther Coffee’s instagram post expands on the origins of these beans.

Opening the bag, I smell this wonderfully sweet, fruity aroma. There’s a hint of nuttiness or earthiness as well if I bury my nose and smell deeply in the bag. Making my latte, I’m greeted with a sweet honey and berry flavor. After a few sips, I started to notice there is also a milk chocolate after taste that left a very pleasant sweetness. This sweetness sometimes made me want to immediately make a 2nd cup when I felt like I didn’t get enough of this delicious coffee.
