Here’s the other coffee that I see around Portland a lot: Caffe D’arte. It appears to be based in Seattle. After having Caffe D’arte coffee and Stumptown both at various coffee houses, I definitely prefer Stumptown by far. Lucky me for choosing Portland over Seattle, since we did consider moving to Seattle as well. To be fair, I’ve met people who swear by this brand.
…And since I don’t want to be lying to you, the content of the cup is actually Earl Grey tea, not coffee. I just saw an episode of Bones (It’s instant on Netflix!) in which Agent Seeley Booth and Dr. Temperance Brennan goes to England where Booth says (…as he takes a sip of tea) — “This is the weakest coffee I’ve ever had.”
We are totally enjoying this TV series (though frankly all that mangled body has made me nearly vegetarian for now) we’ll have to resist the temptation to name our 3rd baby Seeley (if it’s a boy) or Temperance (if it’s a girl).

I LOVE BONES. It is such a terrific show. I have the first three seasons on DVD and always watch reruns!! I think Seeley and Tempi are excellent names.
