Mexico Dry Process Nayarit
This lot is quite unusual, not because of the region it is from or the fact it arrives later in the season than other Mexican lots. It's unusual because it is a full natural, dry-process coffee from Mexico. Actually, dry-process Mexico coffees can be found in many small markets across Mexico, since it is the cheapest way to process coffee. And those can be some of the nastiest Mexican coffees you have ever tasted, full of defect black beans, rotted fruit fermented flavors, phenolic fungus taste. Ironically, dry-process coffee, done right, is much more difficult and more costly that a more technified wet-process lot. The coffee is from the state of Nayarit, and is intense, rustic fruited notes, spice, and caramel sweetness. It's winey in the extreme, with a hint of sourdough yeast in the dry fragrance. The cup, especially at the darker roast levels, has a heavy chocolate character with traces of almond and (of course) a strongly fruited backdrop. The body is dense and opaque, the aftertaste extremely long.

Hario V60 02 Pour Over Cone
PERFECT FATHER'S DAY GIFT!
This is the Japanese version of the ceramic dripper you've read about in the New York Times. The design and appearance of this unit is stunning, not to mention simplicity and ease of use. This product is becoming a favorite for people looking for better alternatives for office coffee. And for the important question: it brews unbelievably good coffee. The ribs inside the funnel allow good circulation of the brew, and the large hole allows you to control the extraction simply by changing the pour speed. We find that best results are achieved by using just a little more coffee than you might initially guess, so be sure to experiment. This brewer uses a NO. 2 conical filter, and brews from 1-4 cups.
Special Price $22.28
Regular Price $24.75

Greetings!Happy Thursday!
We were thrilled this week to have the opportunity to stock a great new product, an organic cotton reusable filter for the Hario pour-over. Pour-over is our favorite way of making coffee, and this great new filter makes it even better. Made from cotton grown in Texas, woven in South Carolina, and sewn in New York, it is an all-American product that will improve your morning cup - give it a try! Consider picking up the cone and the filter together for a great Father's Day gift.
If you are interested in seeing the pour-over equipment, make your way to The Saturday Market in Boylan Heights neighborhood of Raleigh. It's a nice little eclectic market that was featured in a News & Observer article this week. Break your normal routine and visit us there this Saturday.
We hope to see you this weekend!
