Staff Favorites!
Every week on Friday our employees get to take home a free 1-lb bag of coffee or 5-oz bag of tea. I thought I would investigate on what they took home last week and why they like it.

“I worked very closely with an Italian specialty shop to create this blend; every now and again I like to take some home.”

“It’s my favorite; I think Colombian tastes best as a City Roast.”

“It was really good, I was surprised at how much of the mocha notes you can actually taste. It reminded me a lot of Sumatra.”
