java...and tell a story about how you? first discovered that you liked your coffee like that? Were you sharing a special moment with anyone, or simply taking a break from the action?

Or share a coffee memory: I remember my brother in law getting all glassy eyed and a far away look when he would say, "KONA"...like it was a mantra or something. I tried some and it is special. My favorite is any kind my wife shares with me...if accompanied by a fresh baked cookie, so much the better. Now, your turn...

I'm not sure I'm actually answering your question, but what the heck ;D

My happiest coffee moment was when I realized that Starbucks didn't really discontinue the Short cup, they just hid it behind the counter. I like Cafe Lattes and the occasional Cappuccino. I just don't like them with a ton of milk. The short cup with a double Cafe Latte or a regular Cappuccino is absolutely perfect.

Here's an embarrassing story (and the reason I say Cafe Latte now, not just Latte). I went to Italy (at a point in time when Starbucks had been around for a while and I was big on the "lattes") and was at a coffee bar at a train station. My friend ordered a Cappuccino. All good. I ordered a Latte. Oops - guess what - I got a glass of steamed milk. Learned my lesson!
