Sometimes, you find footage on the internet that fits in so well with the theme of the blog that you can't help but share it.
This is a short documentary about a bikepacking trip to Colombia, with the purpose of learning about how coffee is grown and produced.

Coffee Plant Roasters - Nicaragua Mama Mina
Sometimes, calling these blog entries "Now Drinking" is a bit of a mislabel. Sure, it's the bag of coffee that's currently open, but I'm not really drinking it. That's not it's fault though. That's on me. Coming down with the flu for the second time in a winter, after having the flu shot, does wonders on messing with one's body, and in an attempt to try and deal with some of the headache and anxiety, I've cut my caffeine intake off for the time being.
That said, here's what I started drinking two weeks ago. For once in a long while, I managed to make it off work soon enough to stop in at Coffee Plant Roasters. While there, I picked up this coffee from Nicaragua, the 1st Nicaraguan coffee I've mentioned here.
This coffee all comes from the Mama Mina farm, with more info about the farm here.

Once again, I've not actually recorded my taste experience. Sorry. That's what coffee with the flu is like. I wouldn't be able to figure anything about the taste out anyways. I can, however, tell you that it smells good, since I've got the bag right here besides me, since I saved it to remember the tasting notes from the roaster.
