Crispy on the Outside: Starbucks Gets Back to Basics and Wins

  • Pete Guither · 1 year ago
    I went today to check it out. I like the concept -- the attention to freshness, etc. and the coffee's pretty good. Low acidity, distinctive flavor that lingers, rich, slightly tart. I picked up a pound to allow further exploration (I'm on the wrong side of town for regular store visits). I doubt it'll replace my Starbucks Italian Roast (I'm a sucker for naturally sweet extra-bold), but it'll make a nice change of pace.
