How has everyone been enjoying these blissful moments of Southern False Fall? One week there is a delicious crisp to the morning air, the next a balmy soft wind wafts through warmer days. Autumn is wonderfully inevitable, but we like to think of this mercurial weather as a way to test out all our varieties of coffee in a myriad of different options. A smorgasbord of caffeine, if you will. Today a velvety cold brew, tomorrow a steamy cortado. There’s always a fun new flavor profile on the horizon, and the limit does not exist!
Coffee of the Month: Brazil Alta Mogiana
Sweet aroma with notes of chocolate cake, caramel, and almond. Soft, smooth body. In the cup, notes of milk chocolate, toffee, and almond, along with subtle hints of sweet fruit. “Natural”/Dry Process
Tea of the Month: Malty Assam
Our Malty Assam is only the highest grade, SFTGFOP (Super Fine Tippy Gold Flowery Orange Pekoe) Assam tea. It is full-bodied, hearty, and bright with a pronounced malty flavor and lots of tannins. This Assam has a dark, rich liquor with a full, yet clean finish.
What We’re Loving: Carter Move Travel Mug by Fellow
As the weather cools down, plans tend to ramp up and start early to beat the residual afternoon heat. Taking your delicious coffee with you isn’t a want, it’s a need, and this insulated travel mug is the perfect choice for doing so. Slim enough to fit most cup holders and a splash guard to keep you from those accidental splashes to the face -and clothes-, we find it hard to find a better option. We carry a variety of colors, so come see which one fits your vibe best and get ready for caffeine all day!
From Fellow itself: “A travel mug finally worthy of the coffee inside. Designed to amplify the senses and engineered to fit your travel needs with a snap-in splash guard and slim width, you can now enjoy coffee at its fullest on-the-go.”
