I'm a big coffee drinker, and admittedly a total coffee snob. I like it freshly ground, made with filtered water... the works! So don't hate me, but I cannot wait to try the newest coffee from Starbucks... even though its $7 A CUP!

I know, I know, that sounds like an absurd waste of money! But coffee is my thing and I can genuinely taste a HUGE difference when its prepared different ways. At my house, I have a regular drip coffee maker, an espresso maker, a latte maker, a french press, a percolator, and a keurig! And they all make different tasting coffee!

The new bean from Starbucks is Costa Rican Finca Palmilera, and for the time being its only sold in Seattle and Portland. The beans are Geisha heirloom, and extremely rare. I'm already dying for a cup!
