Quick fun coffee facts

JitteryCoffee — Thu, 09 Sep 2010 16:45:11 +0000

On the urging of some of our fans we’re going to try and add in some quick coffee facts here and there. Some very basic, some a little more in depth.
So lets start with one of the basics.
Coffee is not a bean. The coffee “bean” is actually a seed of a fruit or cherry. See image link below..

These plants are sensitive little critters. The coffee plants thrive in high altitudes, generally around the equator. They don’t tolerate freezing temperature. Most regions “harvest” once a year. What I find shocking is one plant, depending on size, will only produce around 2 pounds per year (sometimes up to ten pounds)!

Well now you know!

Introducing: VIENNA ROAST!

JitteryCoffee — Fri, 07 May 2010 17:02:04 +0000

Okay folks, people keep asking for darker, bolder coffee. So allow me to introduce:

VIENNA ROAST! $9.99

This is a DARK, oily roast. We’ve taken one of our bolder, full bodied coffees a little darker than we would normally feel comfortable. When you get this dark you usually loose most of the “flavor of origin,” and just taste the oils and acidity. So again, this is not something I would normally drink; I prefer the medium roasts with wild dynamics such as fruits, sweetness, etc.. BUT once again, coffee is subjective and my dark roast “guinea pigs” really enjoyed it. It can be found on our coffee page, third coffee down:

Roasters Notes: Dark and oily! People keep asking for darker so we’re taking this bean darker than we normally would. It’s just on the verge of burnt, but retains most of the original flavors. Some folks want DARK and BOLD. So it that is you, this is for you!

Oh and for you Birmingham friends, I’ve finally put together a google map of the locations that serve/sell my coffee. The map/list will be ever changing so I’ll try and keep you updated as new accounts are added, etc

Sumatra Offerings Explained…

JitteryCoffee — Tue, 06 Apr 2010 19:47:44 +0000

With the new addition of the Sumatra Wahana, a lot of people are asking about the differences between the Wahana, Mandheling, and Sumatra Sensation
The Sumatra Mandheling is a classic Sumatra; Dark, rustic, full bodied, and a little earthy.

The Sumatra Sensation is a blend of the Sumatra Mandheling and another coffee to blend out the edginess and deliver a full bodied coffee with a smooth mouth-feel.

Now…the Wahana! THIS coffee i’m super excited about. This is unlike any Sumatra I’ve ever had. It’s a natural process (kind of unique process for Sumatra’s) with wild fruit flavors. It’s also roasted dark to bring out the strongest flavor profiles. Reminds me of chocolate-capped strawberries! Truly amazing coffee. Supply is limited, so when we run out, we may not be able to get any more til next year. Don’t forget, coffee is a crop…when it’s gone, it’s gone!
