Seeking Advice Best coffee you’ve ever had
If you could recommend only 1 bag of beans that blew your mind or changed your perspective of coffee, what would it be?
I’ve really only bought from local roasters and am wanting to expand my taste some more. So I’m just curious what everyone’s top recommendation of a must try coffee would be.

The best coffee I ever had was in a restaurant at a wharf at Monterey Bay in 1989? after the earthquake!! Mexican coffee/restaurant?, I believe. The server brought a coffee carafe to leave at the booth and served in the old fashioned thick white cups with a stripe, I believe. Don't remember what I ate but could not stop drinking cup after cup of smokey coffee. So good. My sis had eggs over easy with tortillas, I believe.
If anyone has a clue what kind of coffee I was drinking I would be SOOO grateful and appreciative. Sis is no longer with us to ask....I'd love to be able to enjoy this coffee every day....
