Full-bodied, with choclatey notes and tight-knit complexity

by Meg on August 11, 2007

Coffee Tasting Bun: Today on The Klatch, we taste-test the Segafredo Zanetti. [sips coffee that he's sitting in]

Ah-hmm. Yes. The aroma is startlingly sweet and round with a musty ferment that reads as a sort of drunken/brandyish chocolate. [chuckles] There is even a suggestion of carnal melon! [laughs] A pungent, molasses-toned tobacco gives way to a…[head tilt] an earthy morel mushroom.

Curiously, [sips more] the chocolaty notes are persisting but not blooming. [eyes narrow]

This entry completely lifted from The Coffee Review, where some sweet Dude reviews coffee like you wouldn’t belieeeve! [singsong] Oh, and he also "oversees all cuppings". Heh. Excellent bun pic, Pogovina!

4 Pheas 08.11.07 at 2:16 pm

Now THAT’s a cuppa that’ll start your day off right.

Most excellent pairing of caption and photo (and mouseover text)!

5 Khadija 08.11.07 at 2:17 pm

6 wowdragons 08.11.07 at 2:21 pm

Hah,Khadija…No its more of a StarHops Bunny

7 thepetmuseum 08.11.07 at 2:32 pm

Mm. I want a grande latte with lowfat milk and half a shot of bun.

8 Pheas 08.11.07 at 2:57 pm

I thought only beer was made with hops?

9 Subhangi 08.11.07 at 3:02 pm

SQUEEEEEEEEEEE!!!!!!!!

10 AuntieMame 08.11.07 at 3:04 pm

Eww. I’m more worried about the persisting chocolately notes…

Pleh!

11 CuteBabyFix.com 08.11.07 at 3:12 pm

wakey wakey!

12 Chibi Sylphe 08.11.07 at 3:15 pm

I wonder if it’s the time to make a “cup” category? ;)

13 VaCKo 08.11.07 at 3:24 pm

Chibi Sylphe – more like “containers”, I think. Everything from bunnies in cups to cats in boxes.

14 longtail 08.11.07 at 3:48 pm

Awww, nothing starts your morning off like a cup of bun.

15 Trisha 08.11.07 at 4:08 pm

Grande Bun in a Giraffe carafe please!

16 Khadija 08.11.07 at 4:09 pm

actually the bunneh is in lurve with a giraffe and the only fancy dress he found was this very camouflage-giraffe-cup. now he’s observing his lurve from a distance.

17 metsakins 08.11.07 at 4:11 pm

shhh, he’s hidingks…pretend you don’t see him…..

18 alexa kim 08.11.07 at 4:16 pm

One of the best picture top-caption I’ve read on CO or anywhere else. Very good.

19 DumBunny 08.11.07 at 4:27 pm

So, how do I submit a picture?

20 Martha in Washington 08.11.07 at 4:33 pm

I’ll take a cup please. I hope the whiskers don’t tickle my nose as I drink! That makes me sneeze.

21 Deckard Canine 08.11.07 at 4:49 pm

I’m so dense. I read the text and thought it was a human commenting on the taste of the bunny. Never mind that you’d said “Coffee Tasting Bun.”

22 Annie 08.11.07 at 5:48 pm

Snicker Khadija.
Now heading to the Starbugs Bunny near me.

23 Jessica 08.11.07 at 5:56 pm

Thank you for making my day at work bearable.

24 gryt 08.11.07 at 6:05 pm

The tiny earage! [Must. Neeble.]

25 Meg 08.11.07 at 6:39 pm

The best part of waking up is bunbuns in your cup!

26 jenjen 08.11.07 at 6:51 pm

Carnal melon? Ha ha ha ha.
Better than raisins I guess.

27 moofoo 08.11.07 at 6:53 pm

aww his nose is squished against the side

28 Khadija 08.11.07 at 6:59 pm

Enjoy Annie ;)

29 Decca 08.11.07 at 7:43 pm

Mmmmm, the perfect breakfast. Coffee and a nice, warm bun.

30 Silent Meow 08.11.07 at 8:09 pm

I’d better check my coffee cup for hidden bunnyage before I pour my next cup of coffee. :-)

31 Christina 08.11.07 at 8:18 pm

One cup to go please.

Love the disapproving caption to go with the (possibly )disapproving bun!

32 R. Moore 08.11.07 at 8:23 pm

Just enough Bun to snorgle coming out of the top of the cup :)

I’d carry him around the office.

33 Michelle 08.11.07 at 8:29 pm

*slurrrrrrp*

::smacks lips::

34 Silent Meow 08.11.07 at 10:34 pm

That’s definitely not a cinnamon bun, but a steaming hot coffee bun. I’ll take mine with icing on it.

35 gizmo 08.11.07 at 11:26 pm

Diner: Waiter, there’s a bunny in my coffee.

Waiter: What’s he doing there?

Diner: The backstroke, I think.

:::rim-shot:::

Thanks, folks. You’ve been a great crowd. Don’t forget to try the veal.

36 Shannon Johnson 08.12.07 at 1:09 am

Ha, coffee bunny.

37 Silent Meow 08.12.07 at 2:02 am

When my coffee becomes a flop, straight to Starbuns I then hop. When I drink so much I nearly drown, I hop to restrooms all over town. When the caffeine gives me the runs, I hop as much as this sweet buns. When coffee gives me the jitters, I hop everywhere like bunny litters. I think I’d better cut down on joe, ’cause like this buns, I go, go, go!

38 Annie 08.12.07 at 4:19 am

Silent Meow, Stands up Clapping, Bravo Bravesimo!!!

39 saffron 08.12.07 at 5:19 am

My goodness. What is carnal melon, and where can I get some of it?

And….ooo, bunny.

40 Caitlin 08.12.07 at 5:31 am

slurrrp! ….fuzzy!

I work at Starbucks and I wish we could have these at work :)

furthermore, this little dewd needs to get together with the giraffe from earlier this week!

41 Caitlin 08.12.07 at 6:15 am

ps. Pheas: OW OW OW OW OW

:D

42 POGOVINA 08.12.07 at 6:54 am

Glad you all love my darling bunny! Thanks for posting my pic, Cuteoverload!

43 acelightning 08.12.07 at 8:19 am

I don’t like coffee at all, but I certainly won’t say no to a nice mug o’ bunny!

44 Silent Meow 08.12.07 at 3:13 pm

Annie,

What goes better together than coffee, bunnies, and poetry?

Hopping down the rabbit trail…to my coffee maker, that is, for my first cup of morning joe.

My ears perk at the first scent of morning coffee…

45 Silent Meow 08.12.07 at 3:25 pm

Caitlin,

I really want to work at Starbucks someday.

I have bought enough frapuccinos (spelling?), mochas, caramel mocchiatos, mugs, and lattes there, I’m sure, to qualify. LOL

Now, if they would just start selling bunnies-in-mugs…

The trick would be to keep the bunnies inside the mugs, so that they won’t get out and start hopping around everywhere, multiplying like rabbits, and doing other bunny things!

46 Annie 08.12.07 at 4:25 pm

Ahhh our specail for the day Cafe’ de’ bunny butt

47 Annie 08.12.07 at 4:28 pm

Silent Meow. Then they would have to call it Starbuns hoppery

48 Silent Meow 08.12.07 at 8:29 pm

Annie,

Sneaking a bunny out the door would then be considered hop lifting.

Sneaking a bunny in a mug out the door would be considered hop lifting and mugging.

The punishment would be to have all your hare pulled out.

LOL

49 Silent Meow 08.12.07 at 8:31 pm

Also, Annie, the judge would chew you to rab-bits.

LOL

OK. I’d better stop this now. LOL

50 Annie 08.12.07 at 9:09 pm

Silent Meow and when you had too much to drink you would get a hare of the dog that bite you!
and you could have flavors like cinnabun latte.
choco buntastic with whip.
carmelmoca..bun latte

french Roast bun
This is at least as much fun as the pirate pom post

51 Silent Meow 08.12.07 at 10:37 pm

When I read your post, I just about keeled over from laughing! LMAO!!!

This is way, way too much fun!

You are a hit!

52 Annie 08.12.07 at 10:48 pm

hehe Silent Meow I know yours were cracking me up… hehehe

53 Perrin 08.13.07 at 11:43 pm

Me: I think being stuck in a piping cup of coffee would piss me off.

Rabbit: Yeah, I’m a hot cross bun.

54 Mad Molly Malone 08.16.07 at 7:26 pm

Okay…*cough*…
Good to the last hop!

55 Mad Molly Malone 08.17.07 at 10:40 pm

Hmm… i detect notes of soft neck foldings, giving way to a muzzlepuffette squeeshe against the cup. Teensy earsitude permeates the entire pic, and it rounds off with sleepy eyes for a full-bunnied flavor.

56 Zoe 11.10.07 at 6:04 am

just goes to show you-
check your coffee mug before you go to drink your coffee. A bunneh thief may have came and drank it allthen fell asleep in the mug! *grrr*
