Yes. Hard to beat the smell of freshly roasted coffee in the car - except with freshly roasted and just-ground coffee in the car. Love that smell.  |
Was at Whole Paycheck getting some of their frozen foods (my main reason for stopping there occasionally), and took a gander at the coffee section. They had a great selection of organics in various roasts, mostly South American / Colombian / Sumatran. Their selection of bulk beans was nice, too - and smelled great to boot! Only trouble was - as with most everything else there - they are expensive. 8oz-1lb bagged, roasted whole beans ranged from 9.99 - 13.99 (and up).
I am getting 2.5lb bags of Costco Kirkland house blend, 100% Arabica, for $9.95 - and loving it. Its a great coffee for the price - only issue being it is roasted by Starbucks, but at less than 1/2 of the price of comparable Starbucks whole bean, I aint complainin.
I dont mind paying more for quality, but I think Ill let some other lovers of the bean sample these and report back. If they are that good, Ill commit!
