Just in this week we took delivery of 8 new coffees from family farms
These will be used for Drip Bar brews, small batch roasted Lb for retail, and for green bean sales. Each has been chosen for unique and exotic flavors and aromas, such as strawberry, praline, almond, chocolate chip, apricot.... What is awesome is that these coffees exhibit these flavors without artificially flavoring. It's all in how the coffee is roasted, where it's grown and how it is processed.
These new arrivals have been added to the Shop Green Bean page. Descriptions below.
