    French press makes coffee to delight the senses! (I like it better than paper drip, anyway... I can make the same coffee in both, but coffee from the press seems to be more forthright and emphatic with greater subtlety in the high and low notes and a more nuanced mid-range)

    Just don't grind the coffee too fine for the french press - otherwise it will clog

    Should be a delight for the senses

    A diversity several soil types, sun exposures and coffee bush age creates a sinfully complex coffee. Very fresh and clean but still with notable depth of flavor and palate weight, this coffee shows notes of pumpkin seeds and methanol, with nice accents of green onion and green pepper. With its dark, saturated brown color, the this coffee roars with powerful aromas and flavors.

    You guys having fun with the copy & paste feature on your computer?!

    I hope I can taste all of the "complexities"
    It's cloudy & chilly here in Memphris this afternoon, so if it's waiting for me on my doorstep, I'll have to brew a batch immediately!
