Having spent 2 weeks in Havana, Cuba in 1999 my favourite coffee has been Cubita, Cuba's 'national' coffee brand -made from 100% finest Arabica beans, cultivated and hand picked in the Sierra Maestra Mountains, shade grown, naturally sun dried and chemical free. Roasted and packaged in Havana it is a coffee that has strong earthy tones, with a hint of smokiness and a caramel finish. There's a company in Ireland that imports the beans and I buy 1kg at a time, lasts about 2 months. Fellow coffee drinkers in Canada can buy it from www.cubita.ca, but I'm afraid US drinkers will have to wait for a new president!

Too bad for me!! I'll forward the information to my nephew in Vancouver...he will probably enjoy a good cupa cuban.

I do not like flavored coffee. I prefer single-origin coffees to blends and particularly like Brasillian coffee from Cerrado or Sol du Minas regions.

I drink my coffee black and often prefer espresso to drip.

My all-time favorite coffee is a Guatemalan Huehuetenango that I get from my local roaster. It's light and clean, with fresh grass undertones. I can drink it all day long. Next to that, I like his French Roast -- it's a blend of Ethiopian and Columbian coffees roasted dark, but not burned.
