My favorite is Najjar www.cafenajjar.com/. Nothing fancy, just great tasting coffee. No filters. No sugar. No cream. Just put a few scoops in the cezve, boil for a couple minutes and you are done.
Yet it is in this loneliness that the deepest activities begin. It is here that you discover act without motion, labor that is profound repose, vision in obscurity, and, beyond all desire, a fulfillment whose limits extend to infinity.

The fact that you use one of these (although my colleagues call it an ibrik?) instead of a Mr. Coffee speaks volumes about your coffee snobbery...and as that wise man Mr. Randolph once said, "Ain't nothin' wrong with that!"

Haha it is soo good, hard to go back to the regular stuff. Yea, it has many names depending on where in the middle east you are. If you ever try it this way, remember it is unfiltered. So the actual coffee is absorbed into the water as it boils. As you are enjoying it, it will cool. The coffee settles in the bottom of your cup in the form of sludge. :-) Do NOT finish off you Arabic coffee.....lol They laughed at me for a long time over that. As I cleaned coffee out of my teeth... ;D

I used to make the wine list for a restaurant in Asheville that was owned by a Pakistani family. I loved the little old lady who would pay me; she'd bring me a Turkish coffee, $20 and call me "habibi" before handing me a sack full of deliciousness to take home. They could have skipped the $20 and just given me the stuff to make all the Turkish coffee I could handle.
Oh, and Spella is my favorite coffee. I used to like Stumptown, but Spella tastes like the coffee bar that was in my building in Italy; it's like going back with every sip. *drooool*

Did everybody know Aldi owns Trader Joe's? We are completely 100% operated independently from them... seperate inventory, management, distribution, etc. Just same ownership.

difference in name just depends on region - i call it a džezva (which is actually nearly the same pronunciation as cezve just spelled differently) and it's definitely my favorite way to drink coffee.
This has been an insanely stressful/hectic week and all I could think about on my drive to work this morning was how satisfying my cup of coffee at work was going to be. While I was dreaming about my first cup, I approached a stop light and a coffee truck pulled up next to me. Lo and behold, the name of the coffee company was MY last name.
Sign? I think yes.
I'll have to admit, I haven't dabbled in coffee snobbery like I do with tasty craft beer. I'm completely satisfied with a typical Folgers/splenda/and flavored creamer action, but when I did stay with my aunt in Los Angeles before heading to Coachella this year, they prepared one of the tastiest, but most labor-intensive cup of organic, farmer's market, french-press coffee for me. It was insane. So delicious. I can't stop thinking about their coffee. Maybe one day when I have the means to do so, I'll become a coffe snob. Maybe.

I have a book somewhere on what coffees you may like based on your taste in beer. I'll try and dig it up.

Spella is AMAAAAAZINGLY FANTASTIC coffee!!! As Mayo would say, I "LITerally" pouted last week when I emptied the bag you gave me at your wedding. I might've even whimpered a little, that's how good it is.
Damn. Good. Stuff.
Three cheers for Italian roasters & for generous friends with excellent taste who share the tasty stuff with those they love. ;D

Was just coming in here to post about la columbe. The guy has a show on Travel Channel now where he goes around the globe and buys the beans. Really interesting for anyone interested in the whole process/business of coffee.

The coffee shop I work at has beans that are picked out and bought in person by the owner and then roasted in town. I don't know if that makes it any better because I honestly don't have that much appreciation for fine coffee. I just happened to find that out today and was pretty impressed. I will say that we do get orders from all over the country for our coffee.
I did buy an espresso machine today though. I love a good Americano/espresso shot.
and it's definitely my favorite way to drink coffee.
