So grateful!

On February 22, 2012 we opened our doors with the hope to mix our passion for coffee - good music & all things Colombian. We had a dream to create a job that we could enjoy while sharing some of the best things about our culture with all of you.

We are incredibly grateful for the friendships, the moments shared, the dancing - among many other cultural activities and of course - the coffee.

We will be looking for ways to continue to make it a better experience for all involved: shareholders, staff members, suppliers, and our amazing clients.

Our bakers made wonderful treats to share with you today. If you are in the area, come in and enjoy!

Supporting fair trade is one of our core values.

Our hearts ache with the socio-political situation developing in Colombia this week. Peaceful protests against fiscal policies have been infiltrated by other participants with the sole purpose of creating chaos even though the reform has now been cancelled. We pray that those in the position of power make the right decisions and that this is resolved without further violence. All of this is happening while the health system battles the highest number of Covid-19 cases. So sad that resources are going to waste - infrastructure is being destroyed and lives are being lost.
We ask all of you for a prayer for Colombia tonight. Gracias! 💕🙏
