Podcast Alert: La Colombe and Illy

The Food 360 Podcast recently featured interviews with Todd Carmichael, co-founder of La Colombe, and Master Barista Georgio Milos of Illy. Both interviews were fascinating, and I admire both companies.

Mystery Train

Image
I happened across this group when I was listening to the 'Unbelievable? With Justin Brierley' podcast.  One of the guests, Malcolm Guite, who was on the show to talk about C.S. Lewis is also a poet, songwriter and priest. I noticed in the show notes that he was part of a Cambridge-based group called 'Mystery Train'.  I checked them out and they are quite good! The group performs covers of roots rock, R&B, and blues tunes from the 60's and 70's, and also write original songs.  According to their website they are "like an amalgam of The Last Waltz and The Rolling Thunder Revue...".  I find this to be an apt description after hearing their album of originals. Check out the band's website here And then head on over to their Bandcamp page to listen to or purchase the album.

The Alarm - Sigma

I can't say enough good things about The Alarm's latest album "Sigma" . The Welsh band has been very busy lately, and is smack in the middle of one of the most prolific periods of their career. For the last few years it has seemed like every couple of months I read about a new project or tour they're embarking on. Their latest album "Sigma" comes hot on the heels of last year's (2018) "Equals" . From top to bottom the album is loaded with standout tracks. Both lyrically and musically these songs shine bright.

The music is uplifting and joyous in the way that the best of U2, Bruce Springsteen, or Coldplay are. And like those artists there is an edge and rawness to the songs. They don't shy away from the dark, but there is always hope and light at the end of the tunnel. I've been following their 2019 to...

Hatchet Coffee - Boone, NC

Hatchet Coffee out of Boone, North Carolina continues to impress. The latest I have tried is the "Origin of the World" Columbia, Cauca. It's a very well rounded Columbian coffee with the milk chocolate, nutty, and floral notes I love in Columbian coffees. This could easily be an everyday go-to coffee. It features more of Hatchet's distinctive, beautiful bag art. Their bags are some of the most eye-catching I've seen. Very colorful, interesting art style with every panel on the bag being decorated. This coffee rivals Hatchet's Blue Ridge Blend for my favorite from their offerings. The bag art for the Blue Ridge Blend still takes the top spot in my opinion though. Check out Blue Ridge Blend, Origin of the World, and other great coffees by visiting Hatchet Coffee's online store. Check out the bag for the Blue Ridge Blend:
