This Week in Coffee: Tandem Coffee Roasters Help Us Welcome Fall

Happy Autumnal Equinox! Come by the studio and welcome fall with a delicious cup of coffee and scrumptious pastry from Iggy's Bread (it is hard to resist those sticky buns! yum).

For the past few weeks we have had the pleasure of serving up some wonderful espresso roasts from our new guest roaster, Tandem Coffee Roasters of Portland, Maine! Not only is their name coincidentally bicycle themed, but Tandem roasts delicious coffees with complex flavors, making them a perfect match for our cafe.

Currently in the hopper is Ixhuatlán Del Café from Veracruz, Mexico. This bright option presents with flavors of blue raspberry, candied lemon, grape, roasted fruit, and dark cocoa. Next up, starting later today, will be the Time and Temp seasonal espresso blend. This espresso intrigues your taste buds with both bitter and sour flavors mixing together to perfection and highlighting flavor notes of red berry and blondies. These two options and other coffees from both Tandem Roasters and George Howell Coffee are available on our retail shelf. Pick up a bag today and savor these delicious soothing coffees in the comfort of your own home.

Our current pourover options are wonderful favorites from George Howell Coffee. First up is Karatu ABm, a lovely light Kenyan bursting with flavors of blackberry, blueberry, honeyed lime, and plum.  Our second option is La Piramide from Colombia. This smooth roast offers tasting notes of cherry, dark honey, and wintergreen.
