☕ - The hot beverage that powers the world!
Coffee gadgets - It's always great to learn about new gadgets. Please share your favorite hardware or full setups. It might inspire newcomers to experiment!
Local businesses - Please promote your local businesses. If you are not the owner of the business you are promoting, kindly ask the owner if it's okay. It would be great if the business has a physical store to include an exterior or interior shot.

Flavoured coffees smell amazing but I find them nearly undrinkable.
The flavouring completely overwhelms any of the natural notes you get from the beans with the only thing making it through is the bitterness.
I dunno, maybe I just haven't tried the right brand or roast but every time I do I end up regretting it. It has to be cut with cream.
Yeah, I'm similar. Its not quite undrinkable for me, but I do find that plain coffee just tastes better. Absolutely love the smell though, if they made a raspberry+coffee candle I'd buy out the whole store
I really like Lion Coffee, a Hawaiian brand you can buy on amazon. It's not crazy expensive like some Hawaiian coffees.
The Fresh Market sells my favorite coffee. They're worth checking out if you're near one.
