Mahogany or Espresso

Just a little whimsy today. We're often just as confused as you when it comes to office furniture colors and finishes. One manufacturer's cherry is another's mahogany — and another's mahogany is someone's espresso…

Which led us to thinking about how many different kinds of coffee there are in the world and the myriad ways we here like our coffee.

Stumbling upon a cute chart of coffee styles we felt obliged to press on some of our favorites:

  • espressoEspresso

    Straight and to the point, no holds barred coffee distillation!

  • cafe latteCafe Latte

    Espresso rendered mild with a volume of steamed milk and frothy topping


  • Flat WhiteFlat White

    Never heard it called this way but pretty much a latte without the frothy top.

  • cafe mochaCafe Mocha

    Chocolate and Coffee. ‘Nuff said!



Meanwhile we'll go back to debating whether that used file cabinet is putty or light gray.. come on in and choose your own quality heavy duty lateral file cabinets from Bear Office Furniture in Long Island, New York.
