I&#8217;ve made a point to try any type, blend and flavor of coffee I can brew. Aside from drinking the coffee that I normally fix in the morning at the office, I like to explore strange new coffee shops and seek out new blends of coffee and to boldly go where no coffee taster has gone before.<\/p>\n<p>Well, on this episode of Coffee Trek I discovered a strange new coffee shop called, <a title=\"Java Cabana\" href=\"www.javacabana.com\" target=\"_blank\">Java Cabana<\/a>. Java Cabana is located in the Cooper-Young district in Memphis, TN. Like Java Cabana, the Cooper-Young area itself is new to me as well.<\/p>\n<p>At first\u00a0I\u00a0was concerned of where I was going to park. Luckily for me there was a place a to park right across the street from the coffee shop. Once inside I felt like I was entering a world that I&#8217;ve already been to once before. The furniture, music and the decor reminded me of walking into someone&#8217;s home. There were different types of couches, love seats, chairs with coffee tables and dining tables spread throughout the shop. On the back wall was a book shelf filled with different board games.<\/p>\n<p>I was greeted by a friendly fellow named Wesley. I am by no means an expert on tasting coffee; however, I am a bit picky as to how my coffee should taste. I decided to order a Mocha. The Mocha is a drink I normally order from Starbucks.<\/p>\n<p>The taste was unbelievably smooth and pleasant. The amount of expresso, milk and syrup seemed to perfectly proportioned.<\/p>\n<p>Needless to say, if you&#8217;re in Memphis and you&#8217;re looking for a an alternative to Starbucks then just go over to Java Cabana and explore a taste of coffee that is out of this world.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Hello, my name is Gary Woodard and I&#8217;m a coffee connoisseur.
