Bolt Coffee: A Short Story

The simulation from this course to be discussed in this paper is from the week of Chapter 7, titled “The North-South Gap: You Are a Coffee Farmer.” In this simulation, the reader is presented with an interactive look into the life of an Ethiopian coffee farmer. You are told that your name is Abebe Tesfaye, and you live with your family of eight in Erat of the Ethiopian highlands. You are told that you own land on which you and your family grow coffee beans.

Choosing a colony is harder than it looks! Both colonies are a good choice, but only one can be chosen. Of course you want to join the colony that has the most advantages which will benefit you in the long run, so I will be comparing and contrasting both colonies to list the benefits you want. Bradford's colony won’t abandon you and will embrace you as a family member. While on the other hand, if you are on Captain John Smith's Crew you will get to travel the sea and claim new territory, but if you get sick or injured you will be left for dead. Advantages and disadvantages we all have our own thirst for adventure and will make it hard to choose between the two colonies.

The Coffee Industry is discussed with James Earl Jones on "Behind The Scenes" In an upcoming segment of “Behind the Scenes” with host, James Earl Jones, the coffee industry is discussed. Millions of people in developed countries drink coffee every day with little thought about the process that took place to get the product to their local store.

There was a quiet buzz in the college's premier coffee spot, the rather pretentious faux-boutique StellarGrounds Coffee. The college grounds themselves were alive with activity as always, and it was simmering under the surface with young activists on both sides of the political debate engaged and energized by the process taking place around them. You couldn't walk around a single corner on campus without coming face to face with a blue or red poster emblazoned with the faces of the political leviathans on the big ticket. Not everyone had an opinion, but a small minority on either side seemed to make up for the rest, they shared their thoughts rather vociferously with anyone who would listen, especially those who didn't agree with them. Thankfully there was not too much disagreement in the air at StellarGrounds, the college coffee place only tended to lean in one direction, and that was unwaveringly left!

There are many essentials that are fetishized by Americans; one of those things is coffee. It is no secret that there is a big demand for coffee with many specialty coffee shops springing up, such as Starbucks, Peet’s and Coffee Bean. Oftentimes, the consumer loses sight of where things come from and how they are produced. A key component of production is the producer. The consumer does not pay enough attention to the ethical treatment and wages of the producer. This paper discusses Karl Marx’s premise on Fetishism of Commodities and its direct relation to the production of coffee, focusing on the value of the coffee bean as well as how that directly impacts the farmer and his family.

Coffee is a growing part of people’s daily lives. Just before the 9-5 weekdays, and even during the 9-5, it is common for the working class to drink a cup of coffee. To support this accustomed part of our culture, it involves a complex supply chain that allows those coffee beans to turn into a cup that can be consumed. This paper is structured on how Starbucks, the top coffee supplier in the world, can supply its stores, from raw materials to manufacturing, right to the start of someone’s day.

PTSD is an anxiety disorder that some people get after seeing or living through a dangerous event.

We finish 1L, having survived six classes per semester, and we wonder what next? How hard can a regular full-time course load (of four or five classes) actually be compared to what we have just survived?

Imaging if there was no more coffee in this world, how would you feel? Nowadays, coffee becomes an important part of people’s life. People who often work overtime, they drink coffee because caffeine can make you awake; people who have to wake up early in the morning, they drink coffee because instead of making breakfast, coffee is more convenient; people drink coffee during the free time, because it also tastes good.

While there are many decent places to get a chai around Boston, I would highly recommend going to Boston Common Coffee for your chai tea needs. While it may be slightly out of they way for students not living in Paramount, it’s long hours, decent pricing, and incredible drinks, makes it the place to go when you need your chai latte fix. I promise that you won’t be disappointed. If you can’t get to Boston Common Coffee, you will be happy with Cafe Nero or Thinking Cup, but whatever you do don’t go to Einstein Bros. Now everyone drink up those chai lattes. Enjoy!

No, it’s not a typo. With the invention of Bulletproof Coffee asking if you would like butter in your coffee is a legitimate question. Dave Asprey, the inventor of this coffee blend that is taking Hollywood by storm, insists that it will give you the energy you have always craved and also help you achieve your weight loss goals. The weight loss claim may surprise you due to the fact that one cup of Bulletproof Coffee has 450 calories.

Reading another’s life experiences is like accidentally picking up a stranger’s coffee at Starbucks. It’s unexpected and perhaps delightful experiencing and tasting another’s caffeinated concoction. In the case of my memoir, it was bland coffee so I spat it out and asked for a new drink. However, receiving sips of my peers’ selected memoirs was eye-opening and exhilarating, almost like drinking a pumpkin spice latte for the first time. It was so entertaining and engaging that I plan on ordering some of my peer’s choice of coffee (and read a few of the memoirs my peers presented).

Five years ago Eric quit his job at St. John's Coffeehouse. At the time I was working in a café and a health food store. There was no reason whatsoever for me to apply for a third job and yet I saw the job listing and thought why the hell not. I can still remember the first time I met Eric or really the first time I heard his laugh. I was in the kitchen of the coffeeshop and I heard someone laughing and I could tell whoever it was was behind the counter. So I ventured to the front and there he was making himself an ice coffee. Eric will tell you what he remembers from the day was that I didn’t charge him for his coffee even though I had no idea who he was. But I figured if someone was making his own coffee then I wasn’t suppose to charge him

The “Coffee Wars – The Big Three: Starbucks, McDonald’s and Dunkin’ Donuts” article focuses on the company analysis of the Starbucks brand and how its main competitors, McDonald’s and Dunkin Donuts, has affected their brand and driven competition higher. Even though there are many companies trying to enter the specialty coffee market, these three companies own the majority of the market share. With Starbucks’ top quality and above average prices they hold a different market than the fast coffee/food market of Dunkin’ Donuts and Starbucks; yet the competitive moves Dunkin’ Donuts has made over the years in order to compete with Starbucks and surpass McDonald’s has driven competition up between all three companies. The competition has stiffened ever more in the past ten years due to the changing economy. This led to “the big three” to come up with different techniques to gain competitive advantage over the other. Although the competition between these companies is to gain most of the market share, consumers are still loyal to a certain brand; this makes it difficult to gain each other’s clientele. McDonald’s continues to appeal to customers who want value and speed, Dunkin’ Donuts focuses on the middle-class, while Starbucks a customer who desires a higher quality product along with being recognized for using the brand.
