So, you think that coffee is drunk straight by real coffee lovers. Incorrect! Compared to wine coffee has more flavorings and blending. Loosen up by setting aside your restrictions to enjoy the nature’s gift with 101 different ways.
There is limitless creativity possible on blenders. Making a full-bodied and delicious brew is an Indonesian blend which is a mixture of beans from Papua New Guinea and Sumatra. Did anyone even know that coffee was grown in Papua New Guineas?
Besides Indonesian beans, Sumatra blends with others too. Perfectly brewing after resulting in a dark, smoky and tasty roast happens with a 50/50 mixture of Sumatra and Colombian Patron.
A treat can be made with flavoring too. For sweetening the brew while softening the acid in a Brazilian complement it with vanilla, almond and even cherry. A regular Robusta can become a decent cup with its level rising with banana hazelnut. Though, truly a breakthrough in internationally is a Tahitian vanilla latte making it the highlight.
The different options of bean matches with the variety of chocolates when it comes to making mocha. Already a superb foreign blend Yemeni will get enhanced with melted and well stirred dark chocolate’s touch. With a bit of Ghirardelli milk chocolate try an American roast as now lighter is better. Yum.
There a boundless as well as delightful possible variations with coffee. Also, it is not flavorings, beans and roasts they are confined to. To try a separate path altogether you can also use numerous ranges of liqueurs and liquors.
A hearty helping of rum with brown sugar and dessert pears can be added to a solid base of a full-bodied Jamaican forms. Instead of pears try apricots and instead of rum try brandy for a change. For those who like being sober while intoxicated and sober with the same drink, it is the delectable counterpoint made by a blend of Amaretto’s sweetness and a Costa Rican.
For those who enjoy their coffee cut coffee and cocoa is a conventional favorite. There is no limit to choices here too. Hot or cold, cocoa bean and Mexican coffee can pair up as partners for a delicacy treat in winter or summer from your own coffee makers.
There the coffee confection innovators are not calling it a halt. Waking up the drowsy on a warm day by offering a frozen cappuccino is how far the more daring have gone. Chocolate mint flavoring mixed with it should be tried for the added zing
A poor quality bean is indicated by nuttiness usually. Go for the Macadamia be a contrarian with chocolate or without it. It might be better to work up to that although even coconut or raspberry embellishments have been tried. At the end of it the coffee taste should not go amiss!
So, when a normal cup of Joe fails to satisfy you any longer you shouldn’t come complaining. It is risky to leave the Puristic world.

There was a time in America when there was drip or instant, sugar or milk. The name of the game was Folger’s. Soon enough, the world was brimful with choices including the Skybury from Australia to the Peaberry from kenya, from Barcelona to Kona. Thankfully there’s plenty of variety in options of style, country and blend to make the biggest coffee aficionado become confused.
Brazil, of course has been the world’s largest producer for more than a century now. A third of the countries land is suitable for coffee cultivation. Bahia and Minas Gerais produce some of the most aromatic blends from this South American country.
Though Colombia, is more famous it is second in volume and it is a sweet and light pleasure that comes in ‘excelso’ and ’supremo’ flavors. Coffees made from Narino or Popayan are the best in quality.
Apart these two big names in coffee production theres a world of different flavors that have their own specific colors too, only adding to the exhaustive list.
Mexico retains its pride of place to better known South or Central American plantations. The variety of small beans grown here produce a soft body and light acidity, producing a mellow flavor and taste. Cuba, with its extremely strong cafe cubano - tastes like tequila competing with Spanish cousins in the shock.
As the fourth largest producer of good coffee, Indonesia is known for its mature coffees. The warm, damp climate churns out a drink with deep body and less acidity.
Not to be cowed by its more famous neighbor, Malaysia brews its coffee in a muslin bag, used to filter grounds, producing a strong cuppa. Though low on grade Liberica should be experienced.
The small Thailand also punches in with a blend touched with chicory served with condensed milk and ice, of course for the breed that enjoys its coffee not warm. Think of Mauna Loa and Kona is aromatic, sweet and having a medium body. On the other hand, Sumatra’s Java is richly flavored. Kenya boasts of its beanya, cultivated at seventeen thousand feet high deep and smooth, and having a delicate aftertaste that beats all words!
The Europeans don’t take second place to anybody. The cafe au lait - half and half milk and coffee concoction is a hot favorite in France. Austria still cherishes the two-thirds dark, one-third regular traditional Viennese blend for generations now.
In 1901 Thanks to Luigi Bezzera and later M. Cremonesi in 1938, Italian espressos are to die for. They contain less caffeine compared to others, you can have two and without feeling guilty. Those looking for something lighter, can try out the weaker cappuccino and latte.
For me though, the good old American black is the coffee, the whole coffee, and nothing but my coffee.
