My favorite is the "Special Blend" which highlights African beans from Tanzania, Uganda, and Ethiopia. But honestly, I haven't found a coffee of theirs that I don't like. Another thing I like about them is that you get a full pound instead of a 12oz bag.

This coffee is offering is multi-layered in which you can taste the jasmine, blood orange, and cocoa, as they avoid placing one at the forefront. In addition, the acidity is perfect, making it a smooth drink.

This one has been a total life-saver for me this year. It's a light roast from the highlands of Huehuetenango in Guatemala, and the flavor profile is just incredible. Think smooth body with a nice, bright acidity. There are hints of cocoa, almonds, and a subtle wine-like flavor - the taste is delicate and balanced. It's definitely worth trying if you like sweet, lively coffee.

I love Explorer because of this concentrated cold brew specifically. It is so good that it is decaf. This cold brew is 99.9% caffeine-free and uses the Swiss Water Process for decaffeination. It is a superior cold brew concentrate and I love that you can use it for coffee cocktails without the worry of any added caffeine.

The Blue Ridge Blend is one of my all-time favorites. It's a rich blend with a sweet, nutty, chocolate flavor profile. And, the decaf version is fantastic. If you are looking for decaf coffee from a specialty coffee roaster, look no further as this is my favorite.

I was fortunate enough to try the Blandet Gutt (a flavored coffee) from Kränku Te & Kaffe and Sweeden, which was amazing. It is a blend they mix on site in Visby, Sweeden, and has notes of cardamom and chocolate that make for a heavenly smell and delicious taste.

This selection came from a barista in Seoul as their pick for the best espresso.

Some of my favorite coffee beans from Europe are the BANKO GOTITI beans from the Coffee Barn in Berlin. These are single-origin beans from the Yirgacheffe region of Ethiopia. We used these beans for espresso a year or two ago and found them a rare treat. The shots pulled (Breville Dual Boiler paired with Niche Zero) were textured, complex, and had all of the delicious flavor notes that make Ethiopian coffees so distinctive. However, the flavor notes weren't in your face but instead subtle and smooth. Of the many coffees we have tried around the world, these beans have remained some of our most pleasurable.
