I just ordered from there for the first time (going for the Major Dickason's) and got the shipping notice today! I've been drinking the pre-ground cheap stuff from the grocery store, so I'm excited to get it!

Hee, hee, just did a search on Peets. There're some great old threads there.

2009 Lynskey R230 Houseblend - Brooks Team Pro
2007 Rivendell Bleriot - Rivet Pearl
Andrea, I don't think you'll be disappointed. I don't care for Starbuck's because of the burned aftertaste I get. With Peet's it's strong but smooth. Mmmmmmm.
My all time favorite coffee is Jamaican Blue Mountain. It costs an arm and a leg, but if you ever drink it, you'll understand there is heaven on earth.
My personal favorite is Peet's Sulawesi Kalossie - either french press or drip - it is so smooth and rich.
I'm sitting with a cup of the Major D in my hand right now from the Peet's across the street from my office. Mmmm.
Keep calm and carry on...
My first preference for coffee is the stuff my wife roasts. After that, it's Peet's Major Dickasen's Blend.

Oh yeah... home delivery of Arabian Mocha Java and a decaf blend every few weeks! Right to my door!!!! LIFE IS GOOD!![]()
Everyone Deserves a Lifetime
Ok, I'm headed by Peet's on my way back to work after lunch. Major Dickasen's you say? Can't wait to try it!
Oh, and Jamaica Blue Mountain is to DIE FOR.
As an aside: I've been a coffee lover for years, but my husband decided that a move the PNW necessitated that he learn to like coffee. Nothing like trying to pick up a 'bad' habit, huh?Oh, and he's well on his way...

Mmmmmmmmmm, Blue Mountain! I had it in Jamaica in 1980 and was bowled over! Funny thing, one of the young women who works for me is from Jamaica, her father works for the coffee board and she's consumed enough Blue Mountain to float a boat...now she doesn't like coffee anymore.![]()
