Most Prestigious Coffee

Hey guys - long time lurker, first time poster. Working at a top BB this coming summer (think GS, MS, BofA) and i'm a huge coffee drinker (black only of course, lol). Was wondering (all those in nyc) what coffee should I be bringing into the office each morning to make the best first impression on the desk? Blue bottle? Starbucks? Homemade? Would love to hear your thoughts. Cheers!

Do it the Italian way and bring your own tiny espresso cup to the office, which you warm up with hot water and swirl like the connoisseur that you are before making your espresso in it. 

Nothing will make you look manlier and more sophisticated than standing next to the espresso machine swirling a tiny espresso cup (pointing your pinky ofc). MDs will become subservient to you immediately and top bucket will be yours for eternity.

That pinky better be iced out though. No naked pinkies.
