Where in the World is Brown and Jenkins?

Good Morning Coffee Connoisseurs,

Mid March in the Northern reaches of Vermont is unpredictable at that best of times. An unexpected snowstorm, rapid melting or sunny days are all possibilities. It's the time of year when the Green Mountains are just itching to be green again, and Vermonters are either lamenting the end of ski season (a short one this year!) or reveling in the first signs of spring.
Here at Brown and Jenkins we are saying good bye to the ski tourists, many of whom we'll keep in touch with via our coffee club and blog.

This season, some of the favorite blends for our visitors were the rich and full-bodied Yrgacheffe gourmet coffee and the oh-so-smooth Blog Grog with its combination of Guatemalan Antigua, a touch of French for boldness, and a dash of Mexican Altura.

Clearly, we source our coffee from all over the world which leads into today's blog title of Where in the World is Brown and Jenkins? This is actually an on-going contest we run that awards the winner with a free bag of fresh coffee beans. Simply take a bag of your favorite Brown and Jenkins coffee beans along on your next trip and take a picture of it in front of an interesting and recognizable backdrop. We'll post your picture and web visitors can guess the location. Both the picture taker and the person who guess correctly win a free bag of coffee beans.

Yes, technically Brown and Jenkins is still here in the mountains of Cambridge, Vermont. However, our coffee has been sighted on a motorcycle in Nova Scotia and on a sailboat in an as of yet undisclosed Vermont location. Can you guess it? Where does your Brown and Jenkins take you?

Until our next cup,
Sandy Riggen
