Seasons’ changes here in Huntsville means crazy weather, from warm to cold to wet to…well more of all 3. But one thing remains constant here at The Kaffeeklatsch: freshly roasting beans and warm cups of coffee!
A new month means a new coffee and tea are being featured! March’s featured flavors are:
Coffee Of The Month: Caesar’s Choice Much like the senators slashing Caesar, we are giving customers the power to wield one knife dollar off their choice of one Single Origin, regular or decaffeinated. For in-store purchases just let your bean merchant know which coffee you’ve chosen (Jamaica Blue not applicable) and for online orders there is a coupon code under Coffee of the Month on our front page, copy and use at checkout. Beware the Ides of March no more!
Tea Of The Month: Honeydew Mint
A delightfully refreshing blend of fruits, blossoms, and herbs including melon and peppermint. Brewing tips for this particular tea can be found on the tea’s page under “Herbal Tea”. Naturally caffeine-free.
March Featured Brew Style: Looking for a different way to brew that delicious cup? Check out this month’s featured brewing style, the mighty Pour-Over , with various types available for purchase in our lobby! A quick and easy way to make a single mug of coffee, just set the pour-over cone over your cup of choice, scoop your grounds into the cone (paper filter or reusable) and slowly pour hot water over the grounds. Within 2-3 minutes you’ll have hot and delicious coffee ready to go! If you’re looking for a gift for the pour-over lover in your life, check out our locally made pottery pour-overs, made by the talented Rebecca Palacio at Palacio Pottery Lab right here in Huntsville.
A Note on Store Closures:
Business Hours: We close every week on Sundays and Mondays to give the roaster and staff a well-earned rest, meaning any emails or voicemails left on Saturday or during those closed days will not be seen or responded to until we open for the week on Tuesday. We ask that patience be extended those first 2 hours following the store’s open as we listen/read to everything and catalog what needs to be done in order to respond promptly and with as much information as we can.
St Patrick’s Day: There are few things that pull us away from our beloved roaster, but one such occasion is coming up this month. The annual St Patrick’s Day parade that happens through the streets of downtown Huntsville is a fantastic musical spectacle, one that we take as an opportunity to give the roaster a rest and party hard with the rest of the parade watchers! (If ‘party hard’ means a looong nap followed by delicious Irish food) We will be closed the day of the parade March 15th, and will be back to regular store hours Tuesday March 18th.
March Downtown Events
Justice for The Johnsons
Harrison Brothers Hardware on South Side Square
“This new exhibition shares the history of the Johnson family, owners of a successful dry cleaning business who helped advance the cause of equal legal, voting, and civil rights during the 1930s and 1940s. When confronted with injustice, they turned to the justice system—where they prevailed! The Johnson exhibition shows that you could fight City Hall in Huntsville and win.”
