My New Favorite Coffee

As I've mentioned previously, I am a coffee junkie. What could be better than starting the day with a big mug of piping hot coffee with cream. I'm getting a happy feeling just thinking about it.

When it comes to purchasing coffee for my own home consumption, I have always had two preferences: Bongo Java (my local favorite) and Peet's. That all changed last week.

The hubby, who recently turned 40, received a giant bag of Miscela d'Oro Gusto Classico Espresso Beans as a gift from my sister. The aroma that poured out upon opening that bag was amazing. We could hardly wait to taste our first cup.

After one sip, I knew that I had found my new favorite coffee. Miscela d'Oro's flavor is bold and aromatic yet incredibly smooth. It is not bitter or sharp like so many other dark roast or espresso beans that I have tried in the past. And the crema... you should see the crema on top. It is, in my estimation, the perfect coffee.

Miscela d'Oro, located in Messina, Italy, has been a family owned and operated business for three generations. While the company has grown considerably over the past 60 years, they still hold fast to their core philosophy of quality, elegance and simplicity. The result is an espresso that is authentically Italian.

My sister was kind enough to send me a link to the online retailer that she used. Rest assured, I wasted no time in placing an order of my own. You can never have too much of a good thing.

In case you were wondering, I don't have a problem. I can quit drinking coffee any time that I want to. Really. I can.
