I\u2019m biased. Mugg and Bean coffee, a South African coffee, got is idea in Chicago<\/a>. Which explains why I like this coffee so much. My first cup here had a rich crema, an aroma that filled the room, and a lasting taste. A hint of moca and no snap as one gets at you know where (fill in the open spaces: St-rb-cks). Mugg and Bean<\/a> reminds me of Intelligentsia, Chicago\u2019s finest coffee, and Metropolis, maybe Chicago\u2019s finest coffee. It might be in my top five coffees \u2014 and that means Intelligentsia, Metropolis, Chestnutt Hill Coffee Company, Ugly Mug out of Michigan, and Double Shot. I bought a kilo of Mugg and Bean.<\/p>\n<\/body><\/html>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
