CoffeeFest - New York

March 5-7
Big Lights Will Inspire You

CoffeeFest New York is coming up this weekend and as nerdy as it sounds, I am pumped. I guess when you become passionate about something you look forward to learning as much as you can about it. I went to the Specialty Coffee Convention last year in Atlanta and had a blast. It is a great way to learn more about the industry and meet with the leaders in the business. We want to bring the best to the Raleigh market and challenge ourselves to continually pursue cups of excellence.

* I want to include Empire State of Mind by JayZ in on this post but have no clue how to include audio clips in a post, so a little humming is required.....In New York...concrete jungle where dreams are made of...there's nothing you can't do....

Syphon - Intelligentsia Coffee and Tea: Venice, California

Things are moving forward very nicely with the shop and still anticipate having an opening sometime this summer. I have been playing around with the syphon brewing method for over a year now and have had a lot of fun with it. Jubala Village Coffee will incorporate this method of coffee brewing into the bar to make things a little bit more exciting and entertaining....and because it makes a great cup of coffee. I have about 12 of these in storage right now just waiting to be used! enjoy
