Buy any coffee as close to the source as possible, and it's a huge 
taste difference over what most people think of as good coffee.

I do wish the source was closer, though. I justified my purchase by 
buying a very large amount at one time (a 50-pound sack). So my 
contribution to transportation costs were lower overall than if I 
bought a pound here and a pound there. That's my story and I'm sticking to it!
