I'm sipping a mug of our Sumatra Mandheling that I love for its smokiness, as well as a little hint of chocolate and caramel. How can that NOT start the day out right? So pour a mug of your favorite java, and pull up a chair.
About Sandy and Rich
My husband Rich and I spent 14 years working on board a private yacht. Rich was a captain and I was a private chef. I know- it sounds pretty exciting, and really it was. However, it wasn't what we wanted to do for the rest of our lives. We have a couple of beautiful grown children in the Burlington area, precious grandchildren, and that gave us a burning desire to establish a local business with a strong connection to the community.
At our roastery here in Vermont, we custom roast green coffee beans every day. We have a gas fired rotary drum roaster and produce small batches between 10 and 40 pounds at a time. We also have a few tables where locals and tourists sit, enjoy the coffee, and gaze at the mountains. We're actively building a local community of residents, skiers, and local businesses that share our passion for excellence, coffee and conversation.
Coffee Storage Tip
Store your whole beans in an airtight container (like a Ziploc bag or sealed can) for up to three weeks. Ground beans should be stored the same way, but are only fresh for about one week. Remember, if you don't have an airtight container, the coffee will pick up other flavors which dilute its great taste.
Until our next coffee break,
Sandy Riggen
