February <3’s Coffee

February and coffee, sittin’ in a tree! B-r-e-w-i-n-g! First comes the drip, then comes slurping, then comes grinding fresh beans once more!

We are pleased to announce that our Brazil and Papua New Guinea varietals are back in stock! So if you were waiting to brave the chilly winds until they were back, it’s time to throw on that sweater, and that coat, and the mittens, and the….well you get it; it’s time to bundle up and come in.

Speaking of cold and such, we want to acknowledge the frustration when we have to announce a sudden closure due to ice and other wintry conditions. No one likes ice on their streets, it’s hazardous and annoying and, put plainly, THE WORST. But the ice will always melt, and we try to reopen as fast as possible so everyone can come in as soon as it is safe to do so. If you are in an area that ice seems to linger in well past when it should’ve been gone, we can absolutely ship your coffee to you! The safety of all our customers is an absolute priority, always has been and always will be. (picture a superhero-esque coffee bean with a cape on, saying “Never fear! Your coffee is HERE!” )

Coffee Of The Month: Honduras Liquidambar

Nice aroma with hints of caramel, chocolate fudge, and plum. Smooth, medium body. In the cup, notes of dark chocolate, cherry, and lemon are balanced by a sweet nuttiness. Lovely! —Certified Organic, Certified Fair Trade “Honey”/Pulped Natural Process

Tea Of The Month: Jade Snail Green

Herbaceous, delicate, and sweet with notes of parsley, pear, and canteloupe. **does not contain jade or snails**

Recommendations: Use 2 level tsp. (or 2-3 grams) of leaves per 6 oz. of water; heat fresh, cold water to 160°F (simmering); steep for 2-3 minutes.
