Red Squirrel Oct 2021 11:27am, 20 Oct 2021 22,073 posts	Quote Pin Red Squirrel Well, I'm happy with the Guatemalan. It:s rich with a tiny bit of acidity and it's fine. I'm using Rude Health hazelnut milk. Mild lactose intolerance runs in my family, so I've never got cow:s milk at home.

Old Mum Oct 2021 1:32pm, 20 Oct 2021 7 posts	Quote Pin Old Mum I had a lovely cup off coffee to warm me up after a bit of gardening. Nice Brazilian bean, freshly ground, nicely brewed, hugged like an old friend. Until the feckin dogs drank it for me when I answered the phone.
