Espresso Novo is a great and momentous discovery! With
smooth notes of caramel, banana, and a nutty finish, this is one
of the most complex and remarkable espressos ever! Herb
Brodsky and his sons Jake and Joseph are a remarkable family.
To Herb every cup is like a song… a Bob Dylan song. He’s part
hitchhiking poet, part bohemian writer. Jake, a scientist of
coffee operations, obsesses on coffee perfection, getting primo
beans from his brother Joseph, their world-traveling sourcer.
They treat coffee like fine wine, so beautifully presented, even
their packaging looks like a fancy gift. There is good crema and
Karma in every sip of this amazing and tantalizing Espresso.

Ah yes, not too long ago, I was back on my private jet
heading
to South America in my never-ending search for the
holy grail
of coffees. On a secret tip from my faithful valet
Baldrick,
somewhere in the northern region of South America,
Doma
Coffee was rumored to have a special secret blend of
immense
chocolate and tobacco notes befitting royalty. Upon
touching
down in Bogota, I was greeted at the runway by a
mysterious
woman with skin as dark and lovely as the roasted
beans I was
searching for. It was immediately obvious she knew
why I
had come and had expected me.
Once off the plane, I waved farewell to my loyal
companion
and Go-Go dancer entourage, loading my luggage
and favorite
French press into her jeep. After an hour of enduring
rough
terrain plus a rather sore bottom, we arrived at her
secluded
field. Once parked, we proceeded to hike to the top of
the hill
where her colleagues were busy sorting, blending and
roasting
the day’s harvest.
We sat down together at a small bistro table beside
the
roasting shed and locking her eyes to mine, she
finally spoke.
She said her name is Carmela and she had a coffee
that would
ensnare my senses. Her hands clapped twice and a
young boy
of 14 appeared with a wooden tray and two cups of
this
magical liquid. Scrutinizing the contents I could
immediately
smell the essence of dark chocolate and tobacco
lingering in
the air like a siren to a lonely sailor. I lifted the cup
to my lips
and upon my first sip I felt overtaken by the
chocolatey
passion, knocking me out of my chair. It was as if my
clothes
were flying everywhere, like Charlie Brown on the
receiving
end of a speeding fastball. I quickly regained my
senses,
however, like a Kennedy, I was bewildered to find my
pants
missing. Seeing me in a rather vulnerable state,
Carmela
grinned with cheeky approval. Come hither,
Carmela!
Having satisfied my scrutiny and recovering my
favorite
bespoke Kent & Haste trousers, I provided Carmela
her
payment. Now Doma is sharing Carmela’s blend with
true
coffee aficionados back home. Suffice to say this
decadent
roast is, to say the least, Peaberry Approved.

Every coffee has a story and Big Truck Espresso is no
exception. Inspired by his
childhood memories, roaster Oliver Stormshak learned
to drive in his Grandpa
Joe's green 1955 Chevy Truck. As he grew into a man,
Grandpa Joe was a
mainstay in his life and has remained a great role model
who has inspired him
ever since. He taught him life lessons and the
importance of hard work. This has
helped make Oliver the great roaster he is today. This
commitment to excellence
rewarded Olympia with the 2013 Roaster Of
The Year Award. Oliver
and crew created Big Truck Espresso to be Olympia's
flagship espresso and it
does not disappoint. It's a classic, just like Grandpa Joe
and that 55 Chevy. It is
always great, memorable and consistent. A solid, big
bodied espresso with sweet
chocolate notes and a dense fruity finish. Big Truck is a
mix of beautiful organic
coffees that are often washed, honeyed or natural. They
change from season to
season but it is an espresso you can always count on to
deliver. Grandpa Joe
eventually sold the truck but the memories live on in Big
Truck Espresso.

I am not quite sure why my choices in coffees seem to shift
with the change of the seasons. Every year around this time,
when the holidays start rolling in and the sky changes colors
and darkens, I crave warmth. I am drawn to naughty, sweet
childlike
flavors in my coffee. I think we all find rich and heavy bodied
coffees comforting. I can have a few luscious cups and feel
happy but often, as the day goes on, I tend to switch it up.
Dallis Bros Unisphere Blend has always been a yummy
cup that is light enough to drink all day and still give you the
happy sweet cup that you crave. While listed as a light roast, I
find it more of a medium-light. The milk chocolate, caramel,
plum, nougat and malt flavors could make this one of your
year round favorites. It certainly is one of mine!

Last month, I left my hot air balloon at home and jumped in
my Gulfstream and flew to New York City. I headed straight
for the Dallis cupping lab in Long Island City to try their
latest- greatest coffees. I am thrilled to report I left
mesmerized by a new blend called 1913 Blend! Cup after cup, I
could not stop drinking it. I started drinking it in the morning
and kept at it until lunchtime. It is truly the perfect breakfast
and an all-day classic coffee. South American and Central
American beans roasted beautifully, produce a bright
chocolate cup of yum. It has a wonderful honey-like sweetness
with a bit of fruit. Just enough to make it interesting. I loved
this coffee so much that they surprised me yesterday with a 5-
pound bag in the mail. Joy to the world! This is truly one of
the best holiday gifts of all this Christmas. After you try it, you
will make this one a Christmas morning and every morning
classic.

If you asked an astronomer to tell you about the
Milky way,
they would probably say it is a barred spiral galaxy,
about a
hundred and fifty thousand light-years across, and
that we live in a small part of the galaxy called the
Orion Arm. But if you were to ask me, the great
Professor Peaberry, the same question, I would say it
is a dreamy spiral of dark and heavy chocolate and
caramel deliciousness in my cup! Milky way is great
as a straight espresso but truly shines in a creamy
cloud of steamed milk in my latte cup. This
intergalactic espresso blend put
Demitasse’s cafes on the map in Southern California.
One sip will have you swirling back into sweet
childhood type flavors.
This is destined to become a GoCoffeeGo favorite and
top seller. Try this fantastic new roaster today.
