Yes Tera, coffee for me is a passion, not a business . People does not know the human value of it, or perhaps they don't know there is some. That's why I founded KG, a Guatemalan-American company to join both cultures and learn about each other. This year we are planning to start the coffee tours. You will love Guatemala indeed.
Hey Tera, I'm doing great and yes I opened my own place in Seattle. It is called Stickman Coffee. I'm no longer at Zoka it's been a few years. Sometimes I compete but, I'm usually to busy to compete. So I see you are judging in the ultimate barista competitions. How is that going? What else are you up to?

Yes, we specialize in 80+ point coffees from the Sol de Minas and Cerrado regions in Brasil and yes, we do ship all over from our Portland Warehouse, (We ship some from Eugene too, Alberto at Cafeto' is a long-time friend too) Ken and I go back to when we worked together at Portland Roasting and we still stay in close touch..all the people at Rancilio are great!
