Hello everyone,<\/p>\n

Cory and I love coffee. I mean we LOVE coffee. The smell of it, the taste of it…and the<\/a>\u00a0caffeine boost doesn’t hurt! We’ve gone through many coffee phases in the nearly six years we’ve been together\u2014using pre-ground coffee and a regular coffee maker; then stepping it up and getting whole beans, a burr grinder, and using a french press; to finally using whole beans, a burr grinder<\/a>, and an AeroPress<\/a>.<\/p>\n

You may not think that how you make your coffee matters much, but I beg to differ! AeroPress<\/a> coffee is so much smoother and less acidic. The only downside is that it won’t make you six cups of coffee at a time. So if you’re pulling an all nighter or having a lot of guests, it’s probably a good idea to keep that ‘ol french press around!<\/p>\n

Anyway, we’ve been splurging \u00a0a little and buying fancy whole beans. By fancy, I mean not Trader Joe’s brand. Most recently, we drank the\u00a0Just Coffee Co-op WTF Roast <\/a>(Marc Maron).<\/p>\n

Just Coffee started as a small coffee roaster that worked with Zapatista\u00a0coffee farmers in\u00a0Chiapas,\u00a0MX and is now working with local roasters in Madison, WI. They partner with a variety of different personalities and charities for their roasts. (They also have a great blog with posts from coffee roasting secrets to facial scrubs<\/a>!)<\/p>\n

<\/p>\n

Marc Maron is famous for being a comedian with a highly successful podcast<\/a>, but he’s\u00a0notorious for his love of coffee, with quotes on his podcast like, “POW, I just Shit My Pants! promoting his WTF Roast.\u00a0So obviously when two of Cory’s favorite things (1) coffee and (2) Marc Maron\/ Comedy paired up, we knew had to try it!<\/p>\n

Normally we drink light roast coffee because it has a lower acidity and higher caffeine content. This could also be a knee jerk\u00a0reaction to years of Starbucks Coffee which usually has a more dark roast than\u00a0expected or desired.\u00a0<\/span>Cory also drinks his coffee without sugar\u00a0or cream,\u00a0which probably also explains why he likes lighter roasts as well. <\/span><\/p>\n

That said the WTF blend, prepared as we normally do in an AeroPress<\/a>, is really a wonderful tasting coffee that packs a caffeinated punch. The website states it has complex, spicy, chocolatey tasting notes. We didn’t get the normal\u00a0acidic or oily\u00a0taste that comes with most dark roasts. But we did taste fruit\/wine flavors which we both love in light roasts. (Some of our favorites come from Ethiopia!)<\/em><\/p>\n

At $14 for a 12oz bag of whole beans, the WTF blend <\/a>is\u00a0a wonderful treat, and if you’re willing to spend a little extra cash, would make a great daily drinker. Enjoy it in good health!<\/p>\n

Cheers,<\/p>\n
