New coffee

[rolio]

I just ran out of my favorite espresso ground mix, Illy Espresso ground, the other day, so I went and purchased another: Café Bustelo 10oz. They were out of the Illy brand, so I bought the Bustelo, thinking that for the price: $2.75 (on sale), it would hold me over for a couple of days until I could buy my usual brand. Well, to my surprise, it really surprised me: it was rich, bold, yet smooth, not like the espresso I drank throughout Europe--France and Switzerland being the exception. (They did, however, charge me twice the price. Don't think price inflation works for all things.) So I think I'm going to stay with the Bustelo for a while. I think it's made by the same company that makes Pelon brand--same package color, markings, etc., but with a different name. What kind of coffee do you use on a daily basis? I know that this has been covered a million times, but I really enjoy repeat responses as well as new ones from new members. It's coffee time
