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!!

Had to post this e-mail.
Sent all of our beans to a client to try. Working on a potential link up with some more stores and restaurants.

He started with the Rwanda yesterday, french pressing.
He called to say that his grinder was very happy and that the Rwanda was clean, smooth etc….. the cafe/roastery he has frequented for years coffee is now just “good” and ours is “outstanding”. LOL

Here is the e-mail from day 2:

Kandi & Dave,

Woke this morning and brewed an incredible press of Peruvian. Very different from Rwanda blend and I'm loving it. Both have a definite place in my life! Lol... you're right, it's like wine. Different ones for different days and/or hours of the day.

I'll keep you posted as I progress through the beans!
