Power Ranking Cups of Coffee
Some may know that Stockitchen's partners are huge coffee people and I am certainly to be counted amongst those ranks. Since coffee continues to be a focus for us, I thought I would write a blog power ranking my favorite cups of coffee. Let's get into it:
Major Dickason's Blend is my favorite mass-market coffee, from Peet's Coffee.
It is a damn good coffee but it has an even better name. I don't even know who the Major (is he even real) is but he sounds pretty cool so I love to be associated. Sir Shackleton's Stout is maybe the very best whole bean coffee I have ever purchased. It is from Moka Joe, a roaster out of Anacortes, Washington.
Phenomenal coffee. The moral of the story is I have never been led astray by a coffee named after a person, real or fictional.
Best mugs out there are made by the Polish and it isn't up for debate. Truly experience enhancing.
Last summer I was in the city by myself, with a day to kill before I met up with some family that night. I had a couple things I wanted to see when I was in town; shoutout to the Chicago Board of Trade, Fed Money Museum, and the sexy piece of Burnham and Root architecture known as the Rookery.
So, I walked through the rain all around the Loop. I got a generic cup of coffee at a Peet's (they weren't brewing any Major Dick's) and it was a pretty memorable cup to drink walking through that city.
Some of the Kitchenkcrew went backpacking in the Lost Creek Wilderness. The best part of the trip was undoubtedly a little Starbucks Via after a day on the trail. All time cup of coffee.
Also, no free ads but if you haven't had biscoff with coffee do so immediately. Please sponsor us @biscoff.
Hands down the best coffee I have ever had is in the morning on a sailboat. In the British Virgin Islands, eight AM at the Baths, Virgin Gorda. Crack of dawn in Friday Harbor in the San Juans. Bum ass Folgers or civet coffee, it doesn't matter. Nothing better than coffee on a boat. Probably due to the physical surroundings of aesthetic beauty but also because every time I have had that cup I have been with great company. Sorry I had to mention multiple times I have been on sailing trips but I had to flex.
Hahahahah and you thought I would face reveal.

5. Any coffee with some sort of personal name in the blend name.

3. Coffee walking through Chicago in the rain.
