Here's a wild idea. You probably have a favorite mug in which you enjoy your coffee most. What if I told you that it's probably due to the shape of that mug, and that a different shaped mug will make your coffee taste differently? It's a wild idea until you experience it yourself - then it becomes all too real. We re-discovered the truth of this while playing around with Espro's new Coffee Tasting Cup set, on this episode.

In this episode, we brew and enjoy a coffee which is NOT Arabica or Robusta - presenting Coffea Eugenioides. There are many coffee species in the world, however most are not produced commercially.

On this show, we talk all about Decaffeinated Coffee. This is a subject which is often met with derision in the world of coffee for a variety of reasons - because why drink coffee when it doesn't have caffeine, because decaf is gross, etc. We discover that much of the reason we rarely drink Decaf - which can be quite delicious - is that most of the time quality decaf is limited to very few coffees. We want to explore the wondrous taste of coffee and all it has to offer, and much of the time the ...
