Coffee Snobs – The Sequel

Good morning, everyone,

Greetings from the now somewhat more balmy Maine. With daily highs now in the twenties, it is t-shirt weather and we are getting the kayaks ready. Or not. Soon.

I’ll be roasting this weekend on Sunday the 30th, then delivering and shipping on Monday. Please send your orders by Saturday night to be sure of getting your favorites – though we have a good selection from earlier this week if you need something sooner.

We’ve been working our way through a bunch of samples over the last few days in anticipation of our next coffee order in a few weeks. Stay tuned for more details on an awesome and very different selection this time around – to include an Ethiopia Yirgacheffe, a Sulawesi microlot, a delicious FTO Bolivia and another amazing coffee from the Rwanda COOPAC cooperative. And more.

Last week, I sent you all a link to the Coffee Snob video from YouTube (shown here in case you missed it). By an amazing coincidence, that was actually shot in an office in YARMOUTH. What a small world.

Anyway, that pair of coffee lovers has made another appearance . . . this time discussing their favorite places to hang out and drink coffee. Watch here for their take on the local café scene.

Through the magic of technology, we now have the power to influence their discussions. What would you like to hear them talk about? Send your suggestions to me, and if I pick yours, I’ll give you a free pound of coffee of your choice – and even ship it if you are from away.

Oh, and they need names. What should we call them?

Have a great weekend!

Kent
