Who we are...... by Kandi

It was my desire to have a coffee roasting business in Ligonier Valley for many years. I discovered a transportable roaster and knew that “now was the time”. My partner, Dave was crazy enough to agree to the idea and “so it began”. Our business was established in June, 2010

We ordered the roaster, made with all U.S.A. parts, from a small company out west, traveling nine days round trip to pick it up. It was quite the adventure--- as I’m sure the business will be too.

Our intention is to offer quality coffee that is fresh roasted. This makes all the difference in taste, as our increasing number of coffee “fans” can attest to. To maintain peak freshness, the beans are roasted after they are ordered.

Since our first event, Back to the Garden Market, “just down the road” from us, we’ve brewed and sold coffee at many festivals and markets. Along with purchasing direct from us….our coffee is sold at various other businesses from Rector to Pittsburgh with more in the works. A list is posted. Other businesses have expressed interest and we are receiving a lot of phone and e-mail orders. The positive response is very encouraging.

We hope that once you try our coffee you’ll taste the difference too and become a valued customer and friend as well!!

Coffee is good for you!!

Feliz Cinco de Mayo! Enjoy some Mexican coffee today!

1 ounce Kahlua

1/2 ounce tequila

Whipped cream

Nutmeg for garnish

Stir gently

Garnish with whipped cream and sprinkle a little nutmeg on top if you'd like

Note: As you may know, tequila is made from the fermented juice of the agave plant. Tequila is the national drink of Mexico. It is like a fine cognac in that it gets better with aging. Popular brands include Jose Cuervo, Patron and Sauza. A white tequila would be best for this recipe.
