Being closed two weeks in a row during the fall baking season is never the plan- unfortunately I dealt with a medical emergency over the weekend that complicated things. While I’m on the mend, I need a few more day of recovery before I can get back to my regular baking and prep schedule.

Regular hours will resume next week:
Friday 10/16 and Saturday 10/17
(and there will be plenty of pumpkin muffins!)

Thanks for your patience and understanding!

We’re brewing Revel Coffee’s Honduras Denis Castillo natural - This natural microlot is a testament to Denis Castillo Flores’s dedication at Finca Bendición de Dios. It delivers a heavy, juicy body with rich layers of ripe strawberry, cherry, and red berry. The experience of this coffee is defined by a heavy, syrupy body and an intensely juicy character. It leads with a concentrated sweetness reminiscent of ripe strawberry and cherry, unfolding into a complex layer of red berries and subtle floral aromatics. The natural processing lends it a rich, fruit-forward depth that remains clean and balanced through to the finish. It is a bold and sophisticated Honduras selection that celebrates the harmony between intentional agroforestry and the natural sweetness of the IHCAFE 90 variety.
