Fresh Coffee Roasters / Fresh Coffee Roasters

Just in time for Mardi Gras, Fresh Roasted Coffee has announced a new chicory coffee blend with a rich, smooth tribute to Louisiana’s coffee tradition. Known for its sustainable coffee options, Fresh Roasted Coffee has crafted this coffee blend to capture the rich history and bold flavors of New Orleans with the new Organic New Orleans Style Artisan Blend. It is highly acclaimed as a smooth and delightfully rich coffee blend that brings together organic coffee and Positively Botanicals’ Organic Chicory to create a perfect balance of tradition and taste.

The Organic New Orleans Style Artisan Blend honors Louisiana’s unique coffee culture, which dates back to the Civil War era. Coffee shortages led to the innovation of adding chicory root to coffee. This inventive blend quickly became a beloved staple in the South, particularly in New Orleans, where it remains an essential part of today’s coffee culture. The New Orleans locals enjoy their chicory coffee with some sugar and steamed milk, but this blend is delicious no matter how you take it.

How to drink rum like a pro: Tips for savoring every sip
Your guide on how to taste rum like a professional
Rum in a glass

It might seem self-explanatory, but the way you drink your spirits is actually important. That is, if you actually want to get the most out of them. In my almost two decades of writing about alcohol, I’ve had my fair share of shots of whiskey, vodka, tequila, and even Brennivín (after choking down fermented shark in Iceland). And while there’s no disputing the fact that a shot helps you ingest alcohol at a remarkably fast rate of speed, there’s not much taste involved. That’s why, to truly enjoy hard liquor, you have to take your time with it.

And while I could write an article detailing the aspects of sampling bourbon, single malt Scotch whisky, mezcal, and any number of spirits, today it’s rum’s turn. I’m going to get to the bottom of how to drink rum and taste it. Keep reading to learn the tips and tricks you’ll need to get the most out of your favorite rum in terms of aroma and flavor.

Pouring cream in cold brew coffee

The distinctive brewing method of cold brew coffee sets it apart from every other type of coffee out there. Unlike traditional hot drip coffee or even iced coffee, cold brew coffee is brewed at a low temperature over many hours, giving it a truly one-of-a-kind taste. As a coffee connoisseur, I sometimes have to hold back a scoff when people interchange iced coffee and cold brew (they're really not the same thing). Unlike iced coffee, drinking cold brew offers a variety of unique benefits worth knowing about. These cold brew coffee benefits might just convince you to make the switch.
Cold brew coffee benefits: Taste

I get excited about the benefits of cold brew coffee, but the taste benefits excite me the most. I've always enjoyed drinking coffee in any cold form, but iced coffee always seems too bitter (especially when not appropriately made or with poor-quality coffee). To me, the reduced bitterness is one of the greatest benefits of cold brew coffee.
