Give It A Shot – Kings Coast Coffee Cohhilition Blend
If you have followed or listened to us for any length of time, then you know that About Beverages would probably not exist if it weren’t for coffee. We know that many of you out there probably feel like you don’t exist until that first cup in the morning, and while we tend to agree, that is not what we are referencing. Both of us spent 10 years working together at Arbuckle Coffee Roasters and after Keith moved on to Trader Joe’s, Andrew was there for another 14-plus years. Our time there cultivated a love and appreciation of tasting not only coffee, but beverages of all kinds and how they pair with food. This tasting and discovery of libations of all kinds always leads to great conversation. It is the passion to share those discussions with as many people as possible that ultimately created About Beverages. This brief story of our evolution is relevant because for this episode we will be trying a coffee blend, the Cohhilition Blend from King’s Coast Coffee. We have featured King’s Coast Coffee on our show before, and this one is the newest in their Bespoke Reserve collection. It is an alliance with CohhCarange who is a full time Twitch.tv streamer. The bio on his Twitch page reads “Happy, helpful, and respectful people welcome.” We couldn’t agree more! Cohhilition is a blend of Guatemala Huehuetenango and Nicaragua Segovia coffee beans which have long been among our favorites. What did we think? What do you think? Let us know in the comments below or join us live on Thursday nights to give us your feedback while we are live streaming on Twitch.
