So go have yourself a nice big latte at Starbucks and write the CEO a fan
letter. Adults are allowed opinions and venues such as this are where those
opinions are shared. To chastise somebody for commenting on coffee in the
middle of a thread about coffee is silly. I shared a little known brand
called Montecristo which has very limited distribution and is a well kept
secret in the coffee world. I thought I was doing people who enjoy fine
coffee a flavor. So no apologies.
