Coffee has become hot in America! It all began in the late 60s in San Francisco with a tiny, hip shop called Peets, where the local intellectuals shopped, migrated north to Seattle, and then moved eastward. Serious coffee lovers have made their passion contagious, and today everyone’s got their own favorite “grande” or “’accino.” We feel it’s because the secret of what makes good coffee is finally out. Simply put, it’s about delivering quality and freshness. That’s all. Easy to say, but very complex to deliver consistently in each and every cup! Thanks to very serious growers, importers, roasters, and baristas, though, who are absolutely passionate about what they do, there are some very good cups of coffee being made today.
