Not being a coffee addict or nothing... The best brand coffee I have found over the last 20 years of drinking it is by far.... Tim Hortons, 2 shots of hazelnut, 2 creams. 2nd in line as far as flavor is Millstone Foglifter. The nutty aftertones sets off the smooth flavor.
You have Tim Hortons coffee out there?! Timmy Ho's is a staple of coffee around home! They are a Buffalo/WNY place.

Huh! I have lived in WNY, I always thought Timmy Ho's was a Canadian place.
The Canadian's had one at Kandahar in Afghanistan. It was a touch of heaven out there. Donuts and coffee.....yum!

Hm...ya know, I guess you're right. It did originate in Canada, but I didn't konw that for some time after my first Timmy Ho's experience.
There was one down the hill from my high school in Jamestown and we'd go there all the time.
HAJ...which part of WNY did you live in?

Rochester area and south towards Bath/Corning/Elmira. I lived in almost every region of the state while growing up. I was born in Watertown, but lived outside of there in Adams Center. Moved near Albany in Gloversville/Mayfield, then lived in Cooperstown for a year, moved to Delhi/Oneonta area, hung out in New Paltz, moved to Syracuse (Liverpool & Baldwinsville), went to Bible School in Avon/Lima.... I've been around!  Not many small towns in the State that I'm not at least somewhat familiar with. I haven't seen a Tim Horton's down here in the south. I sure do miss them! They really put Dunkin Donuts to shame! My parents still live in Bath, but are moving next month to Red Hook.

Man...I've been all over that area!
There used to be a gun shop in Bath that I loved to stop at while traveling from Jamestown to the Adirondacks. We'd go across 86.
Let's see...right now I am living in Philly, but I am hoping to get home for Thanksgiving. PM me your addy if you would like, and I might just be able to send you some Timmy Ho's. I do believe they sell it in the stores.

My dad spends several hours a week at that shop.  I haven't been back to NY in about 5 years. I sure do miss this time of year there. Nothing better than getting up at 0:dark:30 in the morning, bundling up, sipping a hot mug of mud, and heading off into the NY wilderness. I once got a speeding ticket in Jamestown! I was coming back from Ft Campbell, KY through Ohio and into NY and sure enough as soon as I crossed the border, I was met with NY's finest....  If Tim Horton's sells ground coffee, you can certainly expect that PM!!!

I drink 6 cups a day in the summer; in the winter, I drink 8+. (OK, I go to the bathroom a lot). I drink it black, just like God intended. Haven't read the whole thread, but I definitely resemble this statement.

I just gave up the French Press & went back to drip, when I found out about Cafestol. Apparently, it raises LDL (bad) cholesterol. , and since my Dr. has started nagging about that, the French Press went back in the cabinet. FC Ouch. I think I'm going to pretend I didn't read this.

Is that gunshop off of Morris St(?) in bath, parallel to Rte 17? I bought a Mossberg stock there once. My mom's family is north of Watertown near Theresa. Spent a lot of time there. My wife is from west of Rochester in dairy country. I went to college SW of Rochester and still visit inlaws and the Brockport Tim Hortons up there on occasion. For anyone from the Adams Center area- Bob's "cakes" and coffee...

Wta Keurig coffee maker for Christmas (not my idea) and it has worked out well. I can only drink one cup of regular coffee in the AM. There are coffees that will put a smile on anyone, especially old salts like Jorge. When the vender says "exrta bold" they ain't kidding!

I know Theresa. We have a family reunion in Govenour every year. My parents were born and raised in Oswegatchie. To this day, I'm trying to get my grandfather's 160 acre farm in Oswegatchie back in the family name. I must be a glutton for punishment though as I detest the black flies and mosquito's up in St. Lawrence County.  Real good fishing on Flatbottom Lake and the Black River, though. I'm going through my rolladex of colleges in that area. Gennesseo? I moved from Adams Center 30 years ago. I don't remember Bob's. Is that the old Colonial Inn establishment? I believe that gun shop is one and the same, PS. Man, you guys are taking me back to my youth! I really want to show my wife and sons that part of my past. To this day, the best sunrise I ever saw was sitting on the edge of one of the Finger Lakes...

What are you hunting with these days? I'd be more than happy to send a box of ammo your way for your troubles.

I don't drink a lot of it but when the weather is overcast and rainy I do. How do you like yours? Sounds a little gay but a Pumpkin Spice Latte from Starbucks is pretty good. I make it less gay by sharing with the girlfriend. I do drink a lot of coffee ! Drinking a cup right now. Prefer it black.

I do appreciate that. Only rifle I have currently (need to rectify this) is a 30-06 that I use for whitetail.
Man...all this talk of Tim Horton's makes me realize that I need to get some for myself!
I don't drink caffeine anymore, but when I am home, I am going to HAVE to get me a bag of the decaf coffee! Just don't seem right to only buy one thing of coffee.

Though it's impossible to have too many rifles, it's equally impossible to find any much more useful than a trusty 30-06. Does old reliable have a preference that it shoots particularly well? Yep, it would be almost criminal not to get you some of that coffee!

I dont drink it except when its really cold out side. It took 15 years of growing up to comprehend why my grandaddy used to always snicker when he would order his coffee. "Hot black and wet, just like my wemmin!"
