Recently we broke in our coffee grinder with coffee beans that Eric picked up to remind him of his recent trip to Sao Paulo. He raved about the coffee he tasted there and when he got back, he picked up some Brazilian beans at the Coffee & Tea Exchange in our neighborhood. Eric and I have put together a good coffee-making set-up. We have a one-cup coffee maker (which was passed down from my sister Val to my brother Tim to me) and a cappuccino machine that Eric has mastered. While we enjoy coffee, neither of us is what I would consider a connoisseur. We like good coffee, but we also go through creamer at a steady rate.
While we traveled last year (this time in 2012 we were in the Cameron Highlands, Malaysia), we sampled local coffee everywhere we stopped. Here's a round-up of some types of coffee or tea you might want to try on your travels or if you can find it at home.
