How My Seattle’s Coffee Addiction Started

Coffee has been one of my comfort foods for as long as I can remember.

Growing up in an Italian family, with my grandmother baking the traditional Italian cookies and sweet breads for the holidays, were the foundation of my love for a good cup of coffee to go with those mouth watering delights.

Throughout my life I can’t even imagine a day without my coffee. The aroma of the coffee brewing in the morning and that first cup to begin my day. I thought life was perfect. I had my coffee and everything was great. Little did I know things were about to change.

It began with my traveling to other parts of the country, New York, then Mexico, New Orleans, San Francisco, Hawaii to name a few. At first I wasn’t overly impressed with the different coffees from the places I visited.  I even remember bringing back coffee from Mexico, and yes it was good coffee, however it was my trip to San Francisco that created the biggest change in the coffees I prefer and now drink.

I was served a coffee blend that was roasted in Seattle. Oh, that was the best cup of coffee I had ever tasted.  And on returning home, the regular coffee I brewed & drank never tasted or satisfied me, since that first cup of Seattle’s coffee.  I have since become a true Seattle’s dark roast coffee addict.

I look forward to every day beginning with my favorite cup of coffee.

Also, Seattle’s Coffee Direct has a great deal going on right now.  You can get 2 bags of their choice coffee blends, plus extra gifts for a special low price. This is a great way to try the coffee to see if you like it and possibly get addicted like me.
