BTW: new show for us “coffee snobs” (as I’ve been called by some friends... :) )...
Dangerous Grounds on (I think) the Travel Channel.
A total nut, the owner of La Columbe coffee shops in NY (Todd Charmichael, I think his name is) travels the world to buy beans directly from the growers. The guy is a type AAAAAAA+ dude and it’s really fun and entertaining (well, to me, at least)
My new favorite show.
BTW, I’ve checked out his shop’s webpage. His most expensive coffee?... $13 per 12oz bag. Not bad considering the trouble he goes to to get it (I thought it’d be a hundred dollars a bag, or some silliness like that). I’m definitely going to try it. In fact, one of my coffee loving friends doesn’t know it yet, but he’s probably going to be getting a one year membership for Christmas, as soon as I try it.
