When I was staying at the Loews Resort on Coronado Island, they served this coffee in the restaurant. The waiter told me it was Seattles Best and I ended up buying a couple of bags to take home with me. Oddly enough, the bags from the States tasted m...

This coffee brings back memories of San Juan, Puerto Rico. I've been fortunate enough to have travelled a lot in my lifetime, and this coffee is hands down the best I've ever had. I still crave a cup to this day.

I've had quite a few French presses over the years and I always end up going back to the IKEA one. It's affordable, durable, and makes a damn good cup of coffee. I've had pricier presses too and I still prefer the IKEA one.

I always disliked when I was told “there’s coffee at home”. Ok well it doesn’t taste good because I always struggled to make the perfect cup of coffee at home. So I started gathering any tool to improve my at home barista skills. Coffee measuring spo...

The Rodeo Drive K Cups by Wolfgang Puck are one of my favourites. It's everything you could ask for in a coffee. Rodeo Drive is smooth and offers a well-balanced flavour. I rarely bring out the Keurig these days, but when I used it on a daily basis, ...

While I don’t bring out the Keurig very often anymore, Victor Allen’s Donut Shop Blend K Cups were frequently in my shopping cart. It’s a medium roast that’s absolutely perfect for mornings and an afternoon pick me up.

When I used to work 40+ hours a week in retail, I lived off coffee. I still remember one day (I don’t even know how this happened), I had zero coffee. NONE. I ran to my nearest Shoppers Drug Mart and this was on sale so I grabbed it because I thought...

Earth’s Own Barista Oat Milk is my favourite for adding into iced coffee and for frothing. It’s the best kind of oat milk to use in any drink for a creamy flavour. The Barista version tastes much creamier and richer than just a regular oat milk.
