But I actually buy Mayorga, Cafe Cubana from Costco because it is accessible, inexpensive and VERY good.
And yes, you can buy Kicking Horse in the US.

On tight months I actually like Folgers 1850.

I never dreamed that I would like Folgers but this one I do. I did not know 1850 was Folgers until I had already had some.

Yes It's pricey but I treat myself a few times a year Thanks to Amazon. They use to serve it in a shop in Philadelphia but they closed long ago, so I can no longer order it from them. For daily drinking we grind the San Francisco Organic from Costco. It's good.

Sadly available in on a few places in Oregon, but well worth a trip off the beaten path to get a cup or a pound of beans.

yes, the name is how I discovered it. I like 3 Peckered Billy Goat brand. https://store.ravensbrewcoffee.com/collections/brand-coffee-tpbg when I can find it.

I do not get to drink the kind of coffee I really like because our espresso machine balks at very dark and oily NW roasts.

Kicking Horse is a good choice. We can get it here in the middle so I would guess it is available everywhere in the USA.

The coffee of choice for the finer San Francisco Bay Area restaurants for decades and decades. They keep it simple with a blend of three beans: dark roast, and for some reason I've never understood, a namby-pamby light roast.

I also hear they also perfected a decaffeinated blend, but I don't swing that way.

The coffee shop buys beans from fair trade places (Mexico, New Guinea, etc). and roasts the beans. Supper yummy.

OXO grinder & brewed in an old Cuisinart brewer. Yummy. Fast, trouble-free and very reliable. Took me around 40-years to find this perfect combination.

Beans are relatively inexpensive, fairly consistent and usually nice and oily. Excellent fresh, earthy old-fashioned taste. Just sniffing the open bag is worth the price.
