“When we drink coffee, our tongue gets painted. As long as it stays painted, it remains tasty!”
- Ernesto Illy, son of illycaffè founder Francesco Illy
JavaTree
Selecting a roasting company is one of the most important decisions of any coffee shop. After many cups of coffee (and sleepless nights), we decided to partner with a premier roasting company in Manchester, New Hampshire: JavaTree. We chose JavaTree because the values and mission of their company aligned with ours in many ways– family owned, attention to quality, great customer service and choice selections. They have a long history of small-batch roasting of grade A coffee beans. We’re definitely hooked on their coffees, and are sure you will be too.
illy
As the most well known Italian espresso producer, illy [il-ee] doesn’t need much introduction to espresso lovers. Producing the world’s finest tasting coffee requires an exacting balance of subtle, aromatic nuances; a blending of acidic, sweet and bitter notes, in order to create the distinctive illy taste. illy’s rich body envelopes the palate, creating a pleasant tactile sensation as it paints the tongue. Numerous flavors ranging from fruity to flowery with traces of chocolate, caramel, hints of almonds and honey, all blend sweetly together. Even those who prefer sugarless coffee are sure to be more than gratified by the end result.
Harney & Sons
Gourmet teas are the only beverage growing in popularity even faster than Gourmet Coffee. There are several gourmet teas on the market today and it was quite a chore to sort through them. When we finally came across Harney & Sons we instantly knew we had a winner. Harney has it all: high quality, wide variety, kosher, organic packaging, and most of all we like that they offer their tea loose. See for yourself why Harney & Sons is the tea of choice at Buckingham Palace — that’s right, the Queen of England drinks Harney Tea.
