Strong, Bold, and Bitter

After tasting and enjoying the Yorkshire tea enough to become a repeat purchaser, I had high hopes for this gold blend. Unfortunately, I'm not a fan. There is nothing overtly distasteful about this blend, and it does have a nice deep bold flavour profile, it tends too much toward bitter for my liking. Even when brewed in a variety of ways (i.e. sub-boiling, boiling, cold brewed, etc., and with various brew times), the flavour is still chased by the bitters. That said, it's a strong enough tea to stand on its own even with added cream (or milk) and sugar without losing itself completely. For me, I'll stick to their basic Yorkshire black.

This is a great bold flavor with a fresh taste.  Unlike many bolds when made strong, does not get bitter.  It is no wonder it is a national favorite.  Green Mountain is my brand of choice.

Some greentea has strong bitter tast. Some people like it but not me. This tea has gentle bitter tast, I like it.

Wow.

This one was intense. Experimental. Bold. Brave. Unapologetic. What you will read is a complex web of violence, sex, and ruminations as to the very nature/purpose of life itself. Be forewarned, though. This is not for everyone. Heck, the book itself breaks the forth wall on multiple occasions to state this very fact. Fans of Cronenberg and Burroughs will be well met in this novella. If your tastes run towards the uncommon, you'll be hard pressed to find something else quite like this book.

Strong. But a little too harsh. Better strong coffees. Tully's! But good over ice.
Only ordered once. People don't choose it when they come over.

This review is for Midtown Madness:
I tend to gravitate towards darker coffees with a deep "coffee" flavor rather than any of that light, medium, or fancy flavored stuff. I like my coffee to taste like coffee and I want it to be strong enough that I still get a full bodied coffee flavor after adding a little cream and sweetener.
But I hate coffee with a bitter taste and acidic aftertaste, which is where most coffees go once they get in the bold flavor range. This coffee promised to be medium range so I had decided I would have one cup and likely pass it off to my teenage son or husband...after tasting it I am keeping it for myself :)
This one, wowed me! It is a very deep and complex coffee, full of bold flavor but completely void of bitterness or acidity.

Welcome to my new favorite coffee.
I am now a subscriber.

Overall, this stevia is really good and very potent.
When I first tried it, I almost sent it back because it tasted SO bitter.  Then I decided to try using less than I'm normally used to and sure enough, that was problem.  Since this brand of stevia doesn't have any "fillers" in it (like the one I used to buy from Trader Joe's had a dairy filler in it), it's very powerful.  Less is more with this stuff.  And because of that, it lasts a really long long time (depending on frequency, amount, etc.).

Unfortunately, the coffee brews too strong for me.

This is a bold book to write.
Author Jacci Turner takes our world and flips it around - creating an America where black people hold the power and white people are the minority experiencing daily prejudice and disadvantage.
The author herself admits that it was scary to write - and that she was wary of making the conversation about race worse rather than better.
Aimed at a young adult audience, the story follows Ann, a young white woman as she joins a new school.
In this world, the white population was drastically reduced by illness during the times when black people were kept as slaves. Seizing the opportunity, the slaves staged a revolution - and a different America was born.
Ann finds herself navigating this world, where white children are shunned, where jobs are given to others because of their black skin, where car doors are locked as she walks by and where the possibility of friendship with black children is an invitation to be hurt physically and emotionally.
It's a story of abuse and the multitude of microaggressions that victims of prejudice have to experience on a daily basis - and how they can sometimes push people over the edge of what they can tolerate.
I suspect this book would best suit those who have not explored racial discrimination to a great level yet - a book that might open their minds to the problems so many face in our own world because of the colour of their skin, and it is a book that will bring out some loud criticism from some quarters for not being more in-depth in that discussion. That said, it is a starting point, and for that it deserves great credit. If this leads readers to discover a Jacqueline Woodson, an Angie Thomas or a Renee Watson, then it's all the better for that.

The description is very vivid with strong imagery and bright bold wording. This is a strong story that will lead readers from page to page.

As a strong, but delicious cup of coffee, "Emeril's Big Easy Bold" certainly lives up to its "bold" name.

This is a great cup of joe for those of us that like our coffee strong and full of flavor, with nothing but coffee in our cups.  When I 1st received my Keurig in December 2011, I tried at least 25 different types of coffee.  Since I tried this one I don't think I have tried any others.

I grew up drinking Starbucks lattes, which many coffee snobs consider to be "burnt tasting."  It may be that because that is the flavor I am accustomed to that I prefer a strong, dark roast, but whatever the reason may be this one fits the bill nicely.

Strong flavor which is good, but not everyone will enjoy it.
Lemon flavored tea with antioxidants.
Sweet but yet sour/bitter at the same time.
Best served chilled/cold.

This coffee is amazing. It's strong and bold without that burnt taste that sometimes comes along with bolder roasts. It's a great kick in the head too...it'll wake you up from anything. We're on our second box of 50 in 3 weeks and it's going fast!

It's definitely strong but, have better tasting strong locally roasted coffee in Philadelphia. It you have good local roasters near you, I suggest patronizing them!

I love a bold, strong coffee.  Some dark coffees are too bitter to enjoy, but this one has a nice balance of bold and smooth.  My husband and I prefer drinking 1/2 decaf in our morning coffee, so we blend this bean with Jeremiah's Pick Coffee Mocha Java Decaf Whole Bean Coffee (also purchased here on Amazon).  Together, they make an excellent robust morning coffee.

Five stars for this relatively inexpensive bean!

I was contacted by the Soleilmavis Liu, the author of this book, who kindly asked me to read and review the book.  I'm pleased it has been getting some positive responses but as the book stands on its own the prophesies that Liu is making here are indeed incredibly bold.  The book itself reads partly like a text book and there are huge chunks of writing and paragraphing that repeat again and again throughout the book, so as I read on I found myself thinking 'she's already mentioned this..'  There is also a chapter where the author talks about the number twelve, and in another incredibly bold prophesy Soleilmavis says that there should be evidence to prove there are twelve planets in our solar system (four undiscovered planets) because, she argues, that twelve is a special number with astrological significance (twelve months, two twelve-hour cycles in a day, twelve animals in the Chinese zodiac).

The prophesies that Soleilmavis makes about the Queen of the South is also incredibly bold as she attempts to interpret what exactly these scriptures mean.  We need a lot more interpretations made about the significance of these scriptures such as Soleilmavis makes because, frankly, we do not have enough of them,  We need more interpretations because too few writers are prepared to make psychic readings that are futuristic such as Soleilmavis has done. Too few authors are as bold to take on and interpret these scriptures as Soleilmavis has done and to present these reckonings in an enlightening way as she has done.  Finally, Soleilmavis talks about the Queen of the South being a good girl, a strong student and academic, entering a university in the Yunnan province and then becoming a victim of electromagnetic technologies.  If you would like to read another autobiographical account of being a victim of electormagnetic technologies then I recommend 1996, by Gloria Naylor, who is a victim of this awful experience as well as some other textbooks which Soleilmavis has also written herself.  In a way Soleilmavis's account of who the Queen of the South is starts to become autobiographical by chapter eleven.  No longer futuristic but someone who is more relevant to the present day.  Herself.  This book is certainly intriguing and will make you want to turn back and re-read through the pages again once more.

This blend lives up to its description of dark, robust and strong.

 It has a slight bitter aftertaste that makes me want to go one or two blends "lighter", but will appeal to those seeking  their classic morning beverage " strong and jolting".
