Drinking *Caffeinated* Coffee in Martha’s Vineyard
Mid-August in Martha’s Vineyard is as good a time as any to
drink coffee. And there are lots of good options to find good coffee. Two of
the best known are Mocha Mott’s, with locations in Vineyard Haven and Oak Bluffs and the Black Dog Bakery and Café in Vineyard Haven. I love them
both.
Black Dog vs. Mocha Mott’s I like Mocha Mott’s for its reliability and I *love* their peanut butter cookies (When I feel guilty about eating them I focus on the high levels of protein compared with chocolate chip cookies). I like Black Dog coffee for its smooth taste and dark roast. It’s mellow….almost better to drink it on an overcast day, rather than a sunny, let’s-hit-the-beach day. Black dog coffee always tastes like summer turning into fall. It reminds me of trees with a few brightly colored leaves and pullover earth-tone sweaters. It’s good coffee to drink if you have to get some work done. I have been enjoying both Mocha Motts and Black Dog coffees for years and don’t really have a preference…
