Seattle’s Coffee Gods (and goddesses)
A few minutes ago Taylor at Umbria in Pioneer Square poured this masterpiece. We were both snapping photos - it’s the best fern she’s ever poured and the first time I’ve ever seen a double fern in real life. If you’re still mindlessly stumbling into starbucks, give Umbria (or Zeitgeist or Elliot Bay Bookstore) a try in Pioneer Square.

I picked up a bag of Panama Esmeralda coffee at Peets yesterday. It’s expensive, but this morning I made a cup in my french press using my usual method and it’s the best cup of coffee I’ve ever tasted. Usually I don’t buy into the whole ‘berry notes with a hint of whatever’ analysis. But the citrus in this coffee is incredible.
