House Blend

We have made some really exciting changes to our House Blend which will take effect next week. We have exchanged some coffees for new ones that have became available to us and changed up the percentages. The House Blend is forever evolving and a work in progress we are really enjoying the benefits of roasting our own coffee.

Closed Friday at 12 o'clock for Carly
