Where in the world was your favorite coffee?

April 07, 2017Carrie Masek

Coffee is the most popular beverage in the world. Ok, plain water probably beats coffee in gallons consumed, but in terms of variety and pleasure, coffee is king. One of the fun things about traveling is discovering the different ways people around the world serve and enjoy coffee.

Ask the Roaster...About Freshness.

March 21, 2017Carrie Masek

“Does coffee spoil?” “How long is coffee good for?” “What's the best way to store coffee?”

We receive a lot of questions about coffee and freshness. The answer depends on where the coffee is in the cycle of roasting, grinding and brewing.

Early Spring Arrivals

March 08, 2017Carrie Masek

Early spring weather is full of contradictions, as is the coffee we receive at this time of year.  Weatherwise, the days are getting warmer, but, there's still a good chance of blizzards and severe winter weather. Some of winter's most exciting weather waits until March. 

Spring is on the way!
