I went to Starbuck's last night...

...and I noticed a new brand of coffee on a chalkboard behind the register. It was called "Guatemala Casi Cielo," and I found out later that "Casi Cielo" means "almost heaven." (This is coffee we're talking about.)

Anyway, it was described as "Enticingly complex with a lemony flourish and dark cocoa notes." And I thought, can you imagine having that sensitive a palate?

"This coffee is delicious! Do I detect a note of cocoa?"

"Yes! Light or dark?"

Now I like Starbuck's as much as the next guy, but to me it all just tastes like ... coffee.
