| Whole Foods has a pretty decent selection and their beans turn over regularly (so they are generally fresh). I agree with the folks who said to look for a medium roast. Also good to look for single source (beans from one location) vs. a blend. |

If you want to get something really fancy there's Hula Daddy Coffee from Hawaii. Very pricey stuff, though.
I got my Dad coffee from the Awesome Coffee Club because he's a big fan of Paul Farmer's work and all the proceeds go to Partners in Health. Two just way out there suggestions. |
