That's hardcore, your expresso machine is $1500 in Canada by itself. I live in an urban area with 300,000 people, there is just one commercial roastery.

I haven't been to Massachusetts in twenty years, but when I've been to the Carolinas, Florida or the Southwest, I've been very unimpressed with the coffee I've been served. Mind you, I don't put a lot of effort into tracking down the best coffee shops, either. Driving though Maine ten years ago, there were so many Tim Horton's and Irving gas stations, I didn't think I had left Canada.
