Gourmet Coffee Roaster takes a World Tour

Good morning coffee lovers,

A few weeks ago I mentioned that a crew on a Christiansen yacht was taking our Brown and Jenkins' coffee beans with them on their two month cruise of the Americas. Well, that got me thinking that perhaps we should take a cruise that goes to the places our fresh roasted gourmet coffee beans here at Brown and Jenkins actually come from to begin with. What do you know about that Tanzanian Peaberry coffee or the Guatamalan Antigua coffee that you just ordered or drank?

So in the next few blogs I'll select some of our most popular, and flavorful, single origin coffee beans and coffee blends. I'll tell you what coffee characteristics are representative of their origin and what makes that particular coffee one you might enjoy. Our Vermont coffee is actually imported from some exotic locales; and each one offers very different characteristics in terms of things like aroma, acidity and body.

So look for a close up of Costa Rican Tarrazu and synopsis of Sumatra Mandheling. I hope you'll find it almost as eye opening as the coffee itself.

Until our next cup,
Sandy Riggen
