I am single and live alone and so for my birthday last year I asked for someone to please serve me a steaming hot cup of coffee in bed. My (married) neighbor Matt kindly obliged and at the agreed upon hour he delivered my cup of coffee with a big smile and a “Happy Birthday”. The best cup of coffee I’d had in a long time.

I grew up drinking coffee daily with my mother; it was nothing fancy — strictly supermarket coffee in a stovetop percolator. We spent countless mornings (and evenings, probably) drinking coffee at the kitchen table talking about nothing and everything. It was always our time.

When I got to college, I discovered the astounding amount of varieties of coffee out there and the ways in which it can be prepared. It was an eye opener to me, and I quickly found my favorite beans and brewing method.

The coffee that I will never forget, though? I hadn’t been to my parents’ house in a very long time, due to various commitments. I arrived early afternoon, and my mother told me she kept the percolator on the stove for me. I remember so clearly the first sip of this coffee. It overwhelmed my entire body, and I actually teared up a little. I’m sure I’ve had thousands of cups of coffee over the years. Coffee from Colombia, Ecuador, Brazil. Cold brewed coffee, french pressed coffee, Burr grinded coffee. Coffee that tasted like chocolate, coffee that tasted like citrus, coffee that tasted like flowers. This coffee, though? This coffee tasted like home.
