The Black Drink

29 September 2009, 23.03 | Posted in Benjamin Vergnion, Luxury, drink, food, new york | 1 comment »

I discovered La Colombe for the first time just a few months ago, but since it has become intolerable to experience anything else related to coffee drinking. What I can vouch for is that La Colombe tastes how coffee always should: so powerful that one sip changes your entire state of mind.

La Colombe Torrefaction they call it… one of the premiere artisanal coffee roasting companies in the United States, setting benchmarks for taste, service and knowledge. It is roasted in Philadelphia and served at their own cafés in NY & Philly, as well as some of the best restaurants in New York including Daniel, Robuchon and Le Bernardin. Their claim to “excellence” is blending coffees, the art of mixing different coffees together to result in an exquisite mélange.
