Now, I'm not one to turn to for coffee recommendations. I do, however, urge you to try the Utu-style mocha, Bidi Bado "Abracadabra" ($7).

You’ve encountered mochas that are all talk and no action - sweet, overly milky, lacklustre. Not only is this fine, full-bodied specimen dark and handsome; it even greets you with a rim of peanut butter, almonds and pink peppercorns.

Give this a try, please. Even if you’re a fellow black coffee drinker.
