It was just last week when I stumbled upon my favorite new coffee. In fact, this is the best coffee I’ve ever tried in my life. That’s a really bold statement when you consider how much coffee I actually drink.

While Stumptown Coffee Roasters was formerly a coffee maker with a presence limited to the Pacific Northwest, the a personal move by the founder to the East coast has led to a New York presence.

I’ve stuck to the regular coffee so far, and that’s seriously all I’ve needed in order to be sold. I’m hooked on it, and the iced and hot varieties are both fantastic. I’ve heard that the cappuccino is phenomenal as well.

Interestingly enough, the prices aren’t much higher than those that you’d find at a Starbucks or Dunkin’ Donuts. This is a great thing when you consider the difference in the quality of the beans. One negative is the fact that they only accept cash, though I don’t know if that’s specific to the location I’ve been to.

Amazingly, Stumptown Coffee Roasters almost has a cult-like following. Those who’ve tried it swear by the brand and refuse to drink any other kind of coffee.

Seattle residents are going as far as saying that Stumptown has the best coffee in their city. When a coffee chain is winning the praise of drinkers in a huge coffee city like Seattle, I think the praise speaks for itself.

Make it a point to get to a Stumptown if you live in a city with a location. While there aren’t many of them, it’s worth the small trip if it requires a few extra minutes of your time.

Caffeine can boost our energy levels like nothing else when we’re feeling weary, and its taste really grows on you. That would explain why there are hundreds of millions of coffee drinkers in the world.

A cup of coffee can also help us while we work. In studies, caffeine was shown to make people more alert, better able to concentrate and more efficient.

While the mental benefits of coffee are clear, the jury’s still out there when it comes to the physical benefits of the drink. Some people believe that it’s harmless, while others insist that it can’t be good for you.

Research has shown that coffee might raise blood pressure levels, and even heart rates, over time. Many people are alarmed by this idea.

However, the same studies explain that this would only happen when people consumed large doses of caffeine on a very regular basis. One cup of coffee a day is not likely to create any adverse effects.

Then, of course, we have the beneficial effects of the antioxidants in coffee. Studies have shown that they offer a line of defense against the development of diseases such as cancer. This is not hard to believe when we consider that coffee is natural. The same qualities are also to be found in red wine, another natural product.

When all is said and done, coffee should be consumed in moderation. Too much of anything is never a good thing, and you should treat any powerful stimulant with care, especially as you age.
