Hello everyone!
First, play this song before you begin
reading and let it play as you read. Second, I would like to apologize for this
blog being bit later than usual. I’ve been on Spring Break and my brain really
doesn’t want to do some more blogging. But, I have finally slain the beast of
procrastination and picked another coffee to taste. Today I picked Grady's Cold Brew. Grady’s is interesting
due to a very complicated way they process the coffee which I didn’t quite
understand and I don’t think many people do. As best as I can understand, they
brew coffee through a filtration system that brews the coffee cold rather than
hot, unlike most ice coffees, which are brewed hot and then poured over ice.
This makes for a unique blend of coffee that has made Grady’s rather popular in
New York, where it originated.
I actually
acquired this blend from a friend of mine who insisted I try it after I
explained to him my blog. Honestly, at first thought, Grady’s sounded rather…
Okie to me. I imagined a bunch of Hillbillies jumping around a giant iceberg
made of coffee, hyped up on coffee and singing Cotton Eye Joe. Whilst
looking for a version I recognized, I found many strange versions of Cotton Eye
Joe, One Remix was
most amusing. After making some very
unfortunate guesses as to what this blend would taste like (moonshine, corn,
chicken, unfortunate marital decisions, etc.), I decided to take a sip.
First sip: Smooth
Second Sip: Smoother
Rest of the cup: Smoothest
This
off coffee must have been brewed by mostly-white Michael Jackson himself.
Smooth and light, but maintaining enough of that darkness to keep it dancing on
my tongue (sorry if that offends you, but… I don’t care). The coffee was
wonderful, and I suggest you try it for yourself. To buy some of this delicious
coffee brewed by the king of pop himself, visit the Grady’s website hyperlinked
in the blog. Other than that, Enjoy the fantastic smoothness of Mr. Jackson
whilst you continue to read other blogs.

ReplyDeleteYour humor in this blog was overwhelmingly awesome, "mostly-white" kid, you're a nut! Loving the voice you give to this blog. Good stuff
ReplyDeleteI happen to like younger Michael. He had talent, he was just a bit wacky.
Checked out the website and it looks pretty cool. Maybe have to order me a couple and give it a good ole try.Fifteen dollars is not that pricey and it's from New York! Can't go wrong with them. I happen to prefer my coffee cold. For whatever reason hot coffee always makes me what to to take a nap. :D
The ending of your blog reminded me of class this past Wednesday for some odd reason. The whole white and Neapolitan thang was pretty hilarious. It sucks that I'm the dark chocolate syrup. I guess I am sold separately. lol I think I am going to go out on a limb and try a coffee you blog about. Maybe not this one, but I have others in mind. Gray's Cold Brew does sound pretty okie though.
ReplyDeleteWell I absolutely love the song choice for this one. It definitely makes me want to try this coffee. I noticed it says concentrate on the bottle. So does that mean it should be diluted with milk or lactose-free liquid? Or, is it meant to be drunk straight out of the bottle? I imagine either is fine, but I i'm curious as to whether you experimented at all. Great post!
ReplyDeleteOnce again, I greatly enjoy the humor in your posts. It's hard not to enjoy each entry you posts because I know there's going to be something unique about each one, through the new coffee you're tasting and the new song choices you include. Apart from a double shot at Starbucks I haven't had much iced coffee. Once I decide to venture forward, Grady's will be first on my list.
