Simple and effective composition, nice choice of background for the beans. I like the shallow depth of field but for me the softness of the leading edge of the subject bean is a tiny problem. I can almost smell the beans....
Very nice photo, I didn't have a comment on the actual photo, but the title...I personally think "coffee" would do just fine, allows for the viewer to fully appreciate the interpretation without being blatant. :)
I'm guessing you will be getting alot of comments saying that this shot doesn't fit the challenge. Who cares, I love this photo. I'd like it framed in my kitchen. The rusty (?) ground or counter-top (whatever it is) is a great contrast to the minimal DOF.
If I were given this photo and asked to guess the topic it would probably take me several tries to guess beverage. I wonder how this would look with the bean in the lower right cropped out even more? For me, this would keep my focus on your main subject, and lessen the distraction.
