Analogman Posted July 24, 2008 Share Posted July 24, 2008 I thought you'd never ask. My bro runs a shop, roasts his own with a diedrich roaster. He gets beans from a buyer in NKC. The bastards are pretty serious. They visit the plantations from time to time, cup each shipment that comes in. No messing around. I also buy through Frontier (a natural food coop). They get decent stuff, it is cheap, fair trade. I used to roast w/ a table top, just don't have time anymore. Nothing better than a bean between day 2 and 4 after the roast. Beans are from all over. I tend to like beans out of Mexico the most. Papua New Guinea was big last year, but my bros has been getting a lot of South America stuff lately. It is pretty good. I think he usually looks for midpriced beans so he can still make a little profit.  That's about like the way I get the coffee I drink. Link to post Share on other sites

austrya Posted July 24, 2008 Share Posted July 24, 2008 Though, if you are looking for a similar treat, you can always hit up your local Dairy Queen for my favorite: Cheesequake Blizzard with reeses cups. Oh man, heavenly... No, you have the Blizzard thing all wrong. The Thin Mint Cookie Blizzard is where it's at. Oh, and I've never even been to Starbucks, but then again, I don't like coffee.

bobbob1313 Posted July 24, 2008 Share Posted July 24, 2008 Heath Blizzard! Top 10, probably.  not to mention countless other things. This is probably meant to be snarky, but I'll take it as a complement.  DQ was my Mecca as a little fat kid. Always Cool Treats never Hot Eats. Though I haven't eaten at a DQ in a few months, I did work there for a year, and since I hated the job and was actively trying to get fired for most of the last 6 months, I'm pretty sure I tried every blizzard combination while there...
