Hazelnut in the House

I've tried to move away from the flavored coffees. Generally, artificial flavors are added to the mellower beans -like Peruvian coffee- that won't have a strong natural flavor. After all, why add artificial flavor to an already-flavorful coffee? But what's more, why artificially flavor any good coffee? Because of this last question, I've shyed away from the flavored coffees in place of quality coffees from the right sources that are so good, they don't need artificial flavor.But after a long hiatus, I caved and bought my favorite flavored coffee, and probably the coffee that got me into coffee...Hazelnut Coffee. I have to say I forgot how good hazelnut flavoring is with coffee. Because of it, if you already put sugar in your coffee, put in less with flavored coffee, you don't need to sweeten it as much. Even my wife has been enjoying some, and she's not quite the enthusiast for Guatemalan, Kenyan, and Arabian Mocha coffee that I am.My moral: every now and then, relax the rules and buy a coffee that tastes good. I suppose there's also Hazelnut syrup for coffee that flavors it and sweetens it at the same time.
