“Coffee is America’s most beloved beverage – and for good reason,” said Bill Murray, NCA President and CEO (shown here). “New consumer values have changed the game for coffee. But the industry is adapting – and thriving – by embracing innovation and transparency.” From sustainability to wellness, these realigned priorities mean that consumers are paying more attention to what’s in their cup than ever before.

Ah, Saturdays…
It’s Saturday. It’s been a nice week with warmer temperatures & everything is starting to green up around the valley.
There’s nothing like coffee on a Saturday morning…

Never Start the Day Without Coffee
Saturday, and it’s sunny today. Still some lingering snow in the mountains, but supposed to be in the 70s by the end of next week. Meanwhile, make sure to get enough of the saving beverage, or bad things could happen…

Best wishes for a wonderful 2019. May all of your aspirations be realized, and may you be blessed with good health and happiness.
Thanks to all who have enjoyed our coffees. You’re our heroes!

Don’t Throw Out Those Used Coffee Grounds
Many folks can’t get by without that cup of morning joe. But when you’re done brewing, don’t toss those coffee grounds — they can be as useful as the brew itself.
Plants love coffee as much as you do. Coffee grounds can be used as a productive fertilizer because it adds nitrogen, potassium and a dash of magnesium to the soil. The consistency of coffee grounds is also handy for soil health.

The online store will then be closed until we return in early January. Peace and Good Will towards all; have a blessed holiday season. We’ll be sure to post pictures from the Plaza de Armas in Lima, and the Nativity Scene in Tarapoto as well. Salud!
Thanksgiving Weekend Specials
Hope everyone had a wonderful Thanksgiving. It was nice for us to visit with Mom & Dad, and relax for a day. We also had a “sushi night” with some friends on Wednesday. I’m not quite ready for the holidays, but it’s growing on me.
After being bombarded with Black Friday emails, we decided not to add to the burden out there. We do have some great pricing for this weekend. Enjoy!
