 what's the best coffee you've ever had?

i'm still yet to experience the magical south american coffee that i keep on hearing about 
 The best coffee ever has been roasted in the past 3 days. 

That is 99% of what great coffee is 
 This is also very true. 
 I was once in a small coffee roastery. It was heaven. The smell alone... 
 oh wow, sounds incredible 🤔💜 
 It was awesome. Maybe instead of drinking so much coffee, I should sit in a roastery for a few hours every day 😂 
 I’d disagree, 2 weeks post roast I find to be the sweet spot. But that’s just me 
 One of the best I’ve ever had is from Kona, Hawaii. 
 how would you describe it from your memory? what made it stand out? 
 The smoothness of it is the first one that came to mind. The taste and smell came after. It smells caramel like and even on the acidity in terms of taste. It's similar to Ethiopia which is my next fav.  
 love the smell of caramel with a passion, sounds absolutely magical 
 @boatingaccident and I love Sightglass Toketee which is distinctly caramel and so rich and good
We get it from @brewHQ 
 Totally agree. I’m a sucker for Kona ☕️ 
 hawaii sounds magnificent, seen some lovely videos about it, can't wait to visit one day 🤗 
 Colombian coffees are some of my faves 

Try to find a geisha, those are spectacular 
 what's a geisha? 
 Geisha is a type coffee tree that produces super high quality coffee beans. Sweeter, more fruity flavors.

These are less common and more expensive, but totally worth it 
 Coffee house near me has coffee from South America and Africa. The African ones are the best. Really flavourful 
 Ethiopian Yirgacheffe 😋 
 El Salvadoran beans are the best that I’ve ever tasted. 
 what made them so special? 
 They might be the most aromatic beans. It's soft like linden. Never burns your throat. It tastes a bit like honey, tbh. But don’t get confused, it’s still a strong coffee. 
 I love to many to pick one 💜☕️

👌🤫 Order 2 canelle on the side.  
 ITALIAN CAFE IN URUGUAY 
 The only coffee I’ve ever enjoyed black has been at an Ethiopian restaurant. Pretty sure it’s not just the bean, but the preparation, because really good smelling Ethiopian coffee prepared at home isn’t as good. (It’s still very good, though) 
 If you live in US or Canada, you might try this microlot collection:
