Welcome to my kitchen!

Welcome to Bitter Mug Aroma, one of the best coffee tips and tricks publications online.

I am Joseph J. Vining. I own and write at Bitter Mug Aroma.

My love affair with coffee started with a vacation to Columbia in the early 80s. The fragrance and rich aroma of coffee made me a convert.

I share my love for all things coffee on Bitter Mug Aroma.

I highlight the best and latest coffees, coffee makers and coffee accessories on the market so coffee lovers like me can get their perfect cup of joe.
