Do You Want To Know What The Best Coffee On The Planet Is?

My wife and I love coffee and we like to fancy ourselves your above average connoisseur of fine brews.  I say that because we go out of our way to research, and purchase some of the best coffee out there from all over the world.

We can’t afford to drink some of the more expensive kinds of coffee everyday but we do like to keep a stash of it and on Sunday mornings or special occasions when friends are over, then we breakout some of the good stuff  and show off what we have found and just enjoy the moment.

We have had the pleasure of drinking everything that you can get off the shelf at our local grocery store like Folgers, Maxwell House, Eight O’clock and the other brand names and they are not the best coffee but make decent cups of coffee.  We have some in our home now and we use them regularly and enjoy them.

We have enjoyed some really good coffees from the coffeehouse chain stores like Dunkin Doughnuts and Starbucks as well as our other local coffee shops.  We have had some really good experiences with them and we still buy whole beans from these places from time to time because they do have some very good roasts that we thoroughly enjoy.

We also are online all of the time researching coffee roasters, companies and growing regions.  We are members of a few of the good coffee forums and you can get some excellent recommendations from some people that are very well educated in what is going on in the coffee world and it is a big world out there.

There are roasters throughout the country and the world that we absolutely love but there is one that is my best coffee secret and I want to tell you about it now.  You have to make me a promise though, you can’t tell anyone else about it.  I say that because I stole it from someone else!

I have a buddy of mine that was stationed over in Hawaii, in the military for awhile and he has been home for sometime now.  One day when we were together doing some work around his place, we started talking coffee and I had mentioned that my wife and I loved Kona coffee, grown in the Kona Belt of Hawaii and thought that this was one of our all time best coffees that we had ever tasted.

He agreed and said yes, his time in Hawaii was very enjoyable for him and that he had the pleasure of sampling all of the coffees grown on the Hawaiian Islands, everything from the Kona, Ka’anapali Maui Coffee, Kauai’s Coffee, Haleakala Maui Coffee, Waialua Coffee , Molokai’s Coffee,  and even the MacNut and Cream.

He also proceeded to tell me that he had found something that was even better then all those and he took me into the house and made me a cup of coffee.  It was black, no cream or sugar and it was the best tasting coffee I had ever drank!

“Awesome, isn’t it?” He asked. “Sure is, what is….”  He smiled, laughed and answered my question before I could finish asking it.

“It’s called Peaberry coffee. It is less bitter and has less bite than other coffees, and it is the most difficult to harvest, because the shells are hard as rocks and difficult to crack open, but once you get that little bean out, it is fantastic. It may cost ya a little more, but it’s worth it.  Don’t you agree?”  I’ll never forget that day with my friend and that coffee gem he shared with me on that sunny day on his porch.

With everything you read and all the commercials that you are bombarded with daily, I can tell you this for certain.  The best coffee doesn’t have a big brand name or come in a pretty package store.  It is all in a little bean from the islands of  Hawaii.

So there you have it this was my little secret (so I like to tell myself) and now it is yours too.  The best coffee I have ever tasted in my life is made from Peaberry beans (from one of our 5 favorite coffee companies) and you can try it now too.
