Hoffee – the caffeine dream (4.2.24)

Hoffee: how coffee sounds when you’re so excited to drink it that your breath blows past the C and spills into song. You too can enjoy this morning brew. The chimes in the back are windchimes, driven by the Santa Ana winds in LA. The hum in the back is traffic, driven by the traffic in LA.

Origin:
Early 21st century (Los Angeles): coined to capture the anticipatory utterance of coffe, where excitement overrides articulation, softening the C into a sexy H.
