I had spoken to a TRFer about coffee and I found this! A delivery from Chad (Rolex addict) with freshly roasted coffee!!!!!!

Chad is serious about his coffee, so he roasts his own. MUCHAS GRACIAS for this smelly package!!!!!! As soon as I go back, it is time for French Press and a cigar!!!!!

Thank you once again, Chad!

Enjoy, my friend!!! Remember, drink it and don't save it. You have a two week window after roasting where coffee is at it's prime freshness.

Sometimes I choose a restaurant depending on its coffee! The best way to finish a great meal!! Not many things are better than enjoying a nice cup of coffee...
