E~S, with *inhales* I assume that you mean the gaseous aromas emanating from a pot of coffee at the end of the traditional powder-and-liquids-and-filter process (in its admittedly by now confusing plethora of methods) and not the coca-analogous technique involving straws and dry (brown, admittedly not white) powder?

I find that IV workes better than snorting. ;)

I do need to make a bean supply run this weekend. Dumped the last of the beans in the coffer this morning.

Here's a bit about the high-powered (min 38vol%) Italian liqueur Sambuca:

"A serving of Sambuca can be a shot with seven coffee beans, representing the Seven hills of Rome. Likewise, a shot with one coffee bean, called con la mosca, which means "with the fly", is as common. The traditional serving is with three coffee beans, each representing health, happiness and prosperity.[3][6] The shot may be ignited to toast the coffee beans with the flame extinguished immediately before drinking."

I remember this mostly from my times in (West) Berlin in the early and late 1980s. I don't remember ever having been served seven coffee beans, you don's swallow them whole, you chew them before swallowing (we did, anyway). I f one is so disposed (I only, by now rarely, take a shot or max two of any of this high volume percentage stuff), one could get a buzz or even drunk on Sambuca. But one would be a very wide awake drunk, and doing that with seven-coffee-beans-shots could sent you into hyperventilation territory; you certainly need an exceptionally sturdy cardiovascular system to try this!

Somewhat similar to snorting coffee (which, if it occurs at all, must be restricted to some very oddball niches), but still short of mainlining. :-D

I ran out of beans the other day so I've had to get up when I wake up and go get a coffee at the local espresso stand the last couple mornings. Will remedy that today.

Sounds heavenly! I enjoy flavoured coffees on occasion. One of my faves is an orange/chocolate one.

A co-worker went to Adelaide for a week and brought back some Irish Cream infused coffee, and it was good! He gave me the web url for The Coffee Bean Shop and I ordered a couple kilos of various kinds! The Swiss Chocolate is almost gone already. I'll have to try the Kenyan Mocha next.
