This years Kenyans are some of the best in years so get ready for a juicy bomb of intensity! As well members with two bags+ or more will get to try our new Colombian Decaf, which doesn't even taste like a decaf. So now you can truly enjoy coffee from early in the morning to late at night and reap all the health benefits without the extra caffeine.

 

It has been a full month in September of renovations and getting the vintage P12 Probat roaster into the new working space. Now there is a glass door separating the roasting from the coffee bar and tasting cupping area. The major bonus is come winter the roasting space will be cozy and warm since it can get a little cold with being in a large building.
