Name: farm:table Location: 754 Post Street (between Jones and Leavenworth), San Francisco, CA Rating: 4-
After my best friend and I hit up the Blue Bottle Ferry Plaza kiosk and before we sated his out-of-town burrito hunger at La Tacqueria (against the recommendations of otherwise admirable Burrito Eater), took a detour by the recently opened [...]

Name: Blue Bottle Kiosk Location: Ferry Building Marketplace (North Nave), San Francisco, CA Rating: 4
My first instinct was simply to post a lot of pictures of Blue Bottle’s permanent San Francisco Ferry Plaza kiosk. After all, by now Blue Bottle is practically a household name. There’s also the fact that the April opening [...]

One might think that the Mission is starting to get high quality coffee saturated with Ritual, Four Barrel, Coffee Bar, and the many wholesale customer who purvey these fine coffees. You’d probably be right, but it’s not as though every [...]

I picked up a bag of this year’s El Yalú at the Berkeley Whole Foods being careful to check the roast date. I’ve noticed that the coffee sent to Whole Foods is not only [...]

Name: Four Barrel Coffee Location: 375 Valencia Street, San Francisco, CA Rating: 4-
My ongoing coverage of Four Barrel Coffee is starting to take on a life of its own. During my delusions of grandeur, I can’t help wonder if my first few reviews (1,2) aren’t the foundations for an epic saga such as [...]

Beans: Ethiopian Wondo Roaster: Stumptown (via Four Barrel Coffee) Rating: 3+
In what very well may be the last of my Stumptown purchases from Four Barrel (1,2), I grabbed this bag of Ethiopian Wondo from the shelves during a fit of not knowing what else to grab. My primary goal at the time was to [...]
Oh my. Oh so close. Check out the comments section for what I tasted today…

Beans: Kenya Muburi Kirinyaga and Guatemala Finca Semillero Roaster: Ritual Roasters & Stumptown (via Four Barrel Coffee) Rating: 4 & 4-
This post isn’t a Ritual vs. Stumptown taste test even though it does compare one coffee from each of these two roasters. What I’m hoping to illustrate with this comparison are the [...]
