REVIEW: Nectar of Life Coffee

If you still want to drink coffee, but less (given all the studies about coffee-miscarriage-infertility) one idea is to drink dark roasts because (1) less caffeine (counterintuitive, but true) and (2) you need to use less coffee.

Nectar of Life sent me their HAPPY PLACE dark roast, and wow it was so strong I use about 6 beans and I'm done. Their coffee is fair trade, organic, and kosher, and the taste was fantastic. They are serious about their roasting (from the website):

Co-Founder and Master Roaster, Martin F. Jennings III, graduated with High Honors from the University of California, Davis with a degree in Viticulture and Enology. Martin went on to make fine wines in both California and Washington State. His love of coffee and organic products brought him to a point where he knew that there must be a way to roast organic coffees to have the same full-bodied flavors as the world's finest non-organic gourmet coffees. With his experience in chemistry, and sensory (flavor) science Martin left the wine industry to pursue roasting the finest organic coffees of the world. The result is the Nectar of Life®.

  1. Coffee, tea, grapes/raisins, rice: these are my top for choosing organic. As the world gets more polarized, organic vs chemicalized, the list grows.
