“Life is like a cup of coffee, it is best made with love…” I’ve loosely followed Farmer Bros (FARM) for quite some time but a series of events triggered me to revisit the situation.
Part of my New Year’s resolution was to go cold turkey on my addiction of the highly acidic blend of roasted Robusta and Liberica black coffee one would find all over Singapore, typically consumed sugarless and without milk for the true aficionados - their presence never going unnoticed as every sip leaves an unmistakable yellow taint on the crooked canvas assembled right behind those lips.
This turkey survived for quite a bit until two weeks ago … I took a short trip to Shanghai to visit some buddies (will be flying to Bangkok in a week - drop me an email if you’d like to grab a drink) and in the spirit of “whatever happens on vacation, stays on vacation” decided to steal a couple cups of freshly brewed black coffee to tide through the day, especially after a number of late drunken nights.
