First time trying this stuff.  Pretty good, overall!

I think Chameleon is from here in Austin if I remember correctly, pretty good and widely available here!

I have tried their cold brew and it's good. I would like to try the mocha and hope it shows up here soon.

The mocha is not sweetened like other brands - it's more of a chocolate "essence" if that makes sense haha - they were BOGO free at Publix this week!

Yeah, that Chameleon cold brew is addictive! I'm pretty sure it's local to Austin, I've had a number of different flavors. I want to say they did a Mexican mocha with some cinnamon and some other subtle flavors which was really amazing.

I will admit, the fact that it was from Austin is what made me grab two bottles haha - since I can't get Budda's Brew (my favorite Austin Kombucha) here in Alabama, I figured some good old Texas coffee would help get me through the summer haha

Mexican mocha sounds amazing, I'll be sure to keep my eyes peeled!

My cold brew trials have continued. This time, with Stumptown's bottled offering.

Much lighter than the Chameleon, mainly because the Stumptown isn't concentrated, so me putting almond milk in this one didn't really do much justice to the flavor. Quite refreshing though!

Question for you coffee guys.
So today I was at the grocery and I was picking up some coffee, I generally buy Cuvée Coffee which is roasted here in Austin and pretty solid for daily drinking. Not crazy expensive, about 12-15 dollars a pound.
Well I saw some Jamaican Blue Mountain coffee from another roaster and I was stunned at the price. 69 dollars for a pound! Is is really that great or is it purely a case of supply and demand? I've heard of the coffee before and have seen some videos discussing it and how it's cultivated, but I never knew it was so expensive.
Just curious if I'm totally off base or what.

It's like any other hobby you can go as deep as you want

I love this little thing at $.90 a shot, toolbox coffee!

@Broark At one time it was thought to be one of the best,and then you couldn't get it,kind of like the Van Winkle bourbon. I'm a coffee fanatic,and I don't think it's worth 4x as much as my current favorite. Just my two cents.–Jett

A friend brought this back for me from Portland:

Iced Coffee > Cold Brew.

If you like that check out Ravens Brew (www.ravensbrew.com) Deadmans Reach. Absolute rocket fuel.

Ravens brew is excellent! We picked up some when we were in Alaska around 2006, thanks for the link.

Local Barista and my fav coffee shop said I should get a Kalita 155 Steel Wave Dripper. Ordered!

^ That is a good suggestion and action :). I love my Kalita!!!
