Coffee anyone?


i have earlier confessed to few obsessions ; football,books,movies and yes coffee.i cant recall when this particular obsession(or is it an addiction?) turns into a passion.Maybe it started during my university days as you struggled to keep awake amidst the pressure of meeting assignments deadline so not surprising if one chose to be addicted to coffee (the other option is a smoke!!!!). Then the discerning taste for a good cuppa takes over. Friends tell me i am crazy as i go great lengths in pursuing this passion of mine. I have sipped and tried to taste all kinds of coffee,i have savoured a great cup of Bali coffee at a beautiful restaurant overlooking a valley at Kitamani Bali. I have tasted Turkish coffee at its original best in the Cappadocia region as the belly dancers strutted their stuff.While most people viewed Indonesia as a place for batik and other shopping extravaganza, for me i pursued its coffee. Indonesia is renowned for its high quality coffee .In a movie scene'the bucket list" Jack Nicholson tried to tell all and sundry the meaning of real luxury..A cuppa of coffee Luwak.(read origin Indonesia).Once on a visit to Bandung i tracked down a famous coffee roaster and grinder shop,Coffee Aroma wow heaven man as you sipped a cuppa with the owner and as he relate to you the history of the place Coffee aroma.By now must have guessed how my day start...what else with a good cuppa of coffee from my machine at home.i though have not yet tasted coffee luwak because it is real expensive believe me!!
