Good Morning Coffee Lovers,
Imagine traveling around both American continents on a yacht! That's what our Brown and Jenkin's coffee beans are doing right now. On April 30th I packed and shipped an order of freshly roasted gourmet coffee beans to Christiansen Shipyards in Vancouver, Canada. Their special request for this online coffee order was that I send enough coffee beans to accompany them on their journey down west coast of North America, around the southern tip of South America and back up the eastern coast.
The brand new 160 foot Christiansen Yacht is expected to take two months to complete the cruise. Then they will cruise the coast of New England and will order more once they are stateside. So now, in addition to the world map and United States maps we keep full of pins representing visitors on our walls here at the coffee roastery, I may need to add a map for the travels our coffee beans take! I can't blame them. I wouldn't travel the globe without my coffee either.
Local Alert: Look out for Feel Good Fridays here at Brown and Jenkins. You'll find sales on your favorite coffees like Mocha Java which is the pick of the day. Look for other freebies and discounts. You can also get this information on our Twitter and Facebook links.
A March study on coffee sales, done by the National Coffee Association, reports that coffee sales here in the US remained stable over the past two years. I guess that's not so surprising for those of us who love their coffee!
Until our next cup,
Sandy Riggen
