Did a google search and didn't immediately see, but is there an actual Ubuntu coffee flavor out there? I mean, there's a kind of theme here...

Also...[gasping in horror] WHY is there not a little smiley of a dude sipping coffee??? Would this not be immeasurably cool and nifty?

:o

Not that I'm aware of, specifically; however, there are a number of African-grown coffees out there.

A total understatement...

Maybe Ubuntu cola will hold you over?

maybe no coffee, but i did read at the weekend (guardian media pages) that the new animation from the creator of 'king of the hill' features a right-on family who adopt an african child named ubuntu only to discover that he's a white south african.
been waiting for the opportunity to drop that one in since saturday

perhaps the ubuntu store should market one
cheers

Watched the first ep. I was not impressed, sadly King of the hill is better and I don't even like that. :(

I would support an official branding of coffee by Ubuntu. I'd buy it even. It'd be a lovely way to support one of my favourite distros, and drink my favourite drink.

It would have to be Fairtrade coffee.
