Hi Friends,
Love that snow, eh? The twin pillars at the end of our driveway have now reached 7 feet and the yard is a sea of deep, white fluff. Fun! Sort of.
I’ll be roasting this week on Sunday, February 6, and shipping and delivering Monday. Please place your orders by Saturday evening to be sure of getting your favorites. Selections this week are shown on the website (www.freeportcoffee.com).
I have just two pounds of Brazil if someone needs something before then. We’ll let these go to the highest bidder who responds before midnight Friday (delivery not included).
The big truck pulls in next week with new coffees from Burundi, Ethiopia, Sulawesi, Brazil, Congo and Panama. I'll tell you more about these next week.
Episode 3 of The Office Coffee Lovers is now available here. Do you think it means anything that he is picking up coffee for her? Or is he just a nice guy? Tune in next week to see.
In the manner of a determined mountain climber, global commodity coffee prices continue to march steadily higher, but I am happy to say that we are holding the line for now (thanks to our very helpful importers). This is the result of a complex and interesting set of circumstances, and this article does a nice job of summarizing them, if you’d like to read more.
Thanks for the support, folks. Have a great weekend.
Kent
