Happy Thanksgiving! This week was the kickoff to winter around here, and not because December starts tomorrow. We had our first snow of the season, and it was a white Thanksgiving for most of the county. We started the day brewing coffee for those who braved the weather and showed up for the
MEB2 Turkey Trot, and finished with a table full of family listing their gratitude.
It was a modified turkey trot with all the snow on the ground, but it was a hopeful and beautiful gathering. And then yesterday we were open until 9 pm for the first
Cornish Christmas, as well as out at the fairgrounds for the
Country Christmas Faire. We've been busy, and we want to tell you that we don't take that for granted. THANK YOU, each of you, for choosing to shop local and support us. We appreciate each of you.
This week we debuted our limited edition
2019 Christmas Coffee. The front label is the above picture of Archie and Lucy, and the back states:
"Community
. This year has been one of transition around here, as we had many changes in our staff, and learned to deal with new situations, like power outages. Looking back at an often chaotic year, the thing that stands out is the support of our community.
Gratitude
. We debut our limited edition Christmas Coffee each year on Thanksgiving week, and itโs a good reminder to say thank you to each of you for your support. Thank you to our staff, new and old, and to each of you, for being our community.
Christmas Coffee
this year is a blend of our rich, chocolate-y Guatemala San Martin Jilotopeque with a touch of our five bean French Roast. This Guatemalan is grown by indigenous people on small farms in the highlands of central Guatemala. It has been processed with care and brews a beautiful cup.
Enjoy
this coffee with our appreciation for another great year."
I've been drinking the Christmas Coffee this morning, and I can testify to the chocolate flavors. It's creamy and easy to drink. All of our employees love it too, so it comes highly recommended. In other news, we roasted our
Jamaican Blue Mountain on Wednesday. I know that many of you have been asking when it will be in stock: it's here! We will continue to roast it from now to Christmas, or until we run out of the green beans. It's expensive, but oh so delicious. Our
Organic Galapagos is also fresh roasted and ready to serve at your holiday gatherings. So many great options.
You can sample the Christmas Coffee this week with the code below. And if you have a coffee lover in your family, our
gift boxes are packed and ready for you to pick up. The one below is our new
California Dreamin'. The
Around the World coffee samplers have been popular this week. Enjoy the rest of your Thanksgiving weekend, and drink good coffee. Cheers!
