Thanks to my daughter and S-I-L, I have three different blends of their coffee beans.
This morning it is a chocolate fudge blend. I have their Winter Solstice (rich caramel & butterscotch) and a Bourbon Barrel Aged coffee as well. A nice bonus to working at home.
Fiona's Blend, Day 2. Just as good.
If you are ever in LEX, stop by Coffee Times for great fresh ground coffee. I go there everytime I am there. It’s on Regency RD, south of Pasedena, one block from Nick Rd. Stanley Demos is my favorite. It was the blend used at the old restaurant of the same name. I also love the Southern Pecan blend. A couple of other good ones are Merrick Inn and the Bluegrass Breakfast blend.
Several restaurants in LEX use their coffee, including Magee’s bakery on Main.
Thanks for the tip. I will do.Quote:

Daughter and SIL gave me three different bags, and two of them I really liked, the third one, not so much. And it surprised me, because I would have thought exactly the opposite.
I'm drinking Bourbon Barrel Aged Coffee this morning, with "notes of vanilla and sweet caramel with a hint of charred oak." It is "barrel-aged" for at least 6 months by them which is supposed to breathe the aroma of the bourbon into the raw, unroasted coffee.
Just not my favorite. Maybe as an after-dinner coffee, but it's just not much of a morning coffee to me.
Fiona's Blend has been my favorite, with Winter Solstice surprisingly right there with it.
