No pop-up store soon

Due to reasons beyond my control, the venue where I could have started a specialty coffee pop-up store has been sold. That means that I have to look for a new place. Still have a list of locations but having to rent them first and such makes it a lot more time consuming than using an existing venue.

Maybe I will do something different to get going…

Sourcing local coffee

While away on Guadeloupe, I’m taking time out to source a local supermarket for their coffee. Guadeloupe used to make lots of coffee for the European Continent but stopped due to competition. After WWII, production has slowly but surely increased again and farmers are more focused on producing higher quality Arabica and Robusta beans. But there’s also a local Bourbon variety that is sometimes added to produce and fuller bodied, round and subtle blend. I’m particularly interested in that variety which is imported from the other French colony Bourbon, off the coast of Madagascar.

Fresh stash from the Netherlands

Got a delivery of fresh beans through a friend who brought coffee from Man met bril koffie in Rotterdam. Bourbon variety of the Arabica beans. One of the best. Can’t wait to make a fresh brew with this!
