The Smell-scape

One more drink fool, will drown you 
Ooooh that smell 
Can't you smell that smell 
Ooooh that smell 
The lyrics to a Lynyrd Skynyrd song have probably never been used in this way but I will gladly do this for the satisfaction of the world. The smell of the interior of a coffee shop is the closest form of heaven I believe a human can reach. That smell truly unlocks doors for me. I can think more clearly and with far greater depth when I am near that well of aroma. The atmosphere in a coffee shop is not very intensive; it allows personal creativity to flow freely. The taste of a coffee shop, however, is independent to each one and has different selling points for each establishment. Some shops offer more quality driven drinks, whereas others focus on the quality of the beans themselves. A few shops can be found to offer good coffee, but more be a gem due to their edible offerings. The taste of a muffin or bagel with a good Sumatra roast is worth running fifteen miles for. I spent many a morning in high school in coffee shops doing homework and personal writing from booths and tables while I drank a few cups and snacked on some delectable treats.
Go try it for yourself!
