The ABC's of Craft Coffee
Did you know we taste all of our coffees totally blind?  That means our coffee pros are deciding what makes it into your box based purely on taste, and nothing else.  FACT: Our coffee experts can divine the origin of almost every coffee they taste, based purely on sensory evaluation.  Just yesterday, they declared one mystery coffee was a Kenyan.  Sure enough, they nailed it! Magical.
