Coffee Review: Complements Organic Sumatra Blend
Since Sobeys recently takeover of the Safeway chains, their store brand under the Complements label has some surprisingly great products. How about coffee?

Coffee Review: Nabob Single Origin 100% Colombian
I don’t usually buy off-the-shelf coffee in grocery stores, mostly because they are meant for mass consumption so they taste more or less the same for the “general public”. I avoid brands like Nabob, Folgers, Maxwell House etc. Some of them has additives added and I avoid them for health reasons. Seeing Nabob now offers […]
