I am not into coffee things so much, but I love tastes of Starbucks and its design.

In this season's "R" (Reserved) lineup, I chose "Aged Sumatra LOT No 593" and "Sun-dried Ethiopia Harrar". They are sold limitedly in black apron's store.

Both coffee taste earthy bold and dense flavor. As always printed, it feels exotic, rare, and exquisite. I love not only its taste but its neat design, simple package with fancy label. This adds me more satisfaction beyond just having coffee.

# photos in recent entries are pulled from google's cache after the HDD mayhem in last week... so they look so jaggy than original.

Three Region Blend is a coffee blended with beans from the regions, Latin America, Africa/Arabia, and Asia/Pacific.

I do not drink medium bodied type coffee so much, but I love this so fruity and smooth taste. Rather than that, I like its package design. Recent Starbucks design is simple and neat like Classic Apple products.

I have tried lots of brands coffee, but I love Starbucks coffee the most.

These threee of Starbucks Reserve new lineup have well balanced bold taste and elegant earthy richness. I also love the cool and cute design of R series package.

I got a package from my friend kt just came back from Seattle. It included Amazon Kindle, Starbucks Special Reserved coffee PIKE PLACE, and some american sweets.

So surprised! Thanx.
It would be nice X'mas today.

A coffee specialty shop/cafe "Nozy Coffee" opened at Misyuku area in Tokyo.

Japanese award-winning barista drips and serves top choice coffee.

Small but cozy space makes you feel genuine coffee flavor.

"La Candelilla Estate" is Starbucks Black Apron exclusive coffee harvested in Tarrazu, Costa Rica.

The flavor is slightly bold but tastes smooth and mild.

I love Black Apron series but sold limitedly. It's so sad that I can't buy most of beans I liked again in next season.
