Hi Steve. We are 15 minutes outside of downtown in Roseville. We'd love to have you up for a visit. I know all those shops you listed, and we are good friends with Sartory.
Hey, things have been great here! We had a great December and we are about to get hooked up with some great Faema machines, so i am super excited about that! Hope things are good in Portland!
Hey Steve...As a matter of fact thats who I'm going with. A group of other roasters and myself are going over with Mike & Ujwala. I'm looking forward to this educational trip. I'll get back with you upon my return.
I love Georgia, too, even though I am in Charlotte now. I tell you, right now I am diggin our Dilworth Papua New Guinea. It's just right for the weather, and even though I am not normally a dark coffee lover, I love one that still has a good, deep sweetness to it. I also had a Rwandan today that we are sampling for a special coffee that was real good! How are things out West?
Anyways, glad you like the espresso. You should try the USBC before it is gone this month or the WBC (it was awarded Best Espresso in the World at the World Championships in Tokyo this year)
At the moment I don't have a favorite but today I will cup the Sumatra Gayo Mountain, perhaps that will be one of my new favorite. I do enjoy the Brazil's my self if I had to choose it would be the Brazil Daterra-Yellow Bourbon .
Hey Steve...thanks for the comment, I am really proud of the way the shop turned out, and I tried really hard to align myself with people in the business who also take pride in their product and the coffee industry and keeping it fresh and honest and fun...and this website is the crema on thatperfect shot - I have met so many great people to network with and bounce ideas off of. What a great concept. I see lots of educational field trips in my future! I enjoyed checking out your website, you're doing some cool stuff! Have a great day.
