Yes, coffee originated in Africa. This is flavored beer the way a hazelnut mocha is a flavored coffee. However, there are different methods of preparing a cup of coffee. Worthy of particular praise are Thornbridge, Cloudwater, Staffordshire Brewery and Badger Ales. We are in the process of rewording the compensation plan but not sure when that will be released. I will do that one soon. If you have to use sugar, just use it sparingly and pick the one with the flavor you like best!
