To Vanilla

Vanilla,

I must say that you were slightly different from some of the other flavored coffees that I've tried.  I expected a pungent, perfume-like brew, but your vanilla tones were subtle and thoughtful.  In fact, I was mesmerized by your silky texture and docile taste.  Although you didn't completely sell me on your overall character, our first experience together was indeed positive.  Improve on your body or roast, and then maybe we can talk.

Catch you on the flip side,

Me

P.S. Try pairing up with a multi-grain bagel and plain cream cheese (low fat if you will).

To House Blend

House Blend,

So clean.  So bright.  So piquant.  You’re average, tidy, well-kept, and predictable.  Although there’s nothing special about you, I relish in your subtle tones.  Every time we meet, you are more flavorful than I remember.  It baffles me how you can get away with such a balanced, lovely nature without coming across as too boring. Early in the morning as the sun rises, I truly enjoy greeting the day with you in hand.  Though there’s nothing explosive about you, there’s nothing distasteful about you either.  If you’re not fresh, recently ground, and proportionately accurate, forget about it.  I have my limits.  Your reputation may not be the greatest, but I’m set on fixing that.

Stay Genuine,

Me

P.S. Try pairing up with blueberries fresh from the patch!

To Cafe Estima Blend

Estima,

Your gentle cocoa flavoring definitely made you rise above.  There was something velvety about your long aftertaste.  I appreciated both your depth and your savory fullness.  I feel that your true uniqueness, however, shines through your smoky refinement.  Through every taste, you are intent on making yourself known.  There's a dangerous sanctity to your personality, like you were born for greatness.  There were times where I longed for a more juicy feel, but I can settle for your graceful intensity.  I wouldn't recommend you for the faint at heart, yet avid drinkers would delight in your roasted pleasure.

Keep it coming,

Me

P.S. Try pairing up with s'mores around the campfire.
