At home when the weather is warm I like cold brew. My basic recipe: 1 cup burr-ground coffee + 4 cups water. Stir then let sit for 12 hours. Filter out the coffee. I buy the coffee at a nearby produce/deli/wine market with a broad selection. I'm always trying out different varieties. In cooler weather I go with a french press and hot water. There are a pair of local coffee shops I like to hang out at too. I'm at one of 'em right now. Espresso-based drinks are my thing here (a flat white today).
In a couple weeks I'll be off to Big Island (Hawai'i) for my yearly visit. There my coffee jam is Kona varieties. There's a fantastic coffee shop/restaurant near where I stay. Daylight Mind, it's called. They always have a selection of small-producer Kona coffees available. It's a different drink altogether: almost like a rich vegetable broth with a caffeine kick. No hints of bitterness whatsoever. Yum!
