Attempting a coffee update. Will be moving the site soon . Not sure where yet. Will post when ready.

Dear Coffee fans:

Tough Love is a many splendored thing.  So is coffee.  My roasting  is like a wave.  So is my tasting. I have sampled many cups of coffee along the way.  The tough love I now practice is throwing out a cup of coffee.  I do not do this well.  Some Corporate Giant talks about “Good to the Last D–p”. That phrase still hooks me..

Now what hooks you?

Key lime tart excellent

Beautiful rehab of post-Katrina Warehouse District

Good coffees all! No Chicory , Henry! (Lonsdale)!

Started at MOJO Coffee corner of Race and Magazine. Garden District. (1) Went next to a coffee shop ( about a block from MOJO ) that opened too late for me to try. It was named Fat Boy’s. Tea Witch was in there somewhere as well. Kept walking east from MOJO and ended up at next stop , French Truck coffee (2) . Great coffee quick serve atmosphere, much brighter interior.  MOJO had a “Big Easy” feel to it. French Truck, a more Uptown feel. I ended up at Revelator Coffee,  The tour was about five miles in a walk. Worth every step..Revelator gave me a sweet shot of Ethiopian origin Espresso, and a sweet Nicaraguan pourover. the water back was a mineral water from Arkansas with just the right amount of fizz.
