What Is A Coffee Ambush?»

jasondominy:

The Coffee Ambush is where I go into a business, to the surprise of everyone except the one person I organize it with, and I brew coffee for them with the Clever Dripper for the morning. I created the Coffee Ambush as a way to do three things:

1. To get delicious Batdorf & Bronson Coffee in the mouths of lots more people. We roast some dang good coffee, and I want more and more people to see how tasty it is, especially in comparison to the fast food coffee most of them drink.

2. To introduce a lot more folks to what specialty coffee is, and show how much better it can be.

3. To have fun, getting out in the community and meeting a lot of great people who love coffee, and to show them how cool brewing coffee at home can be.

What a great idea. Here’s the latest ambush, of the Cartoon Network offices.

Float

1st visit – safe under the arcade

Cold, drizzly morning today, after dropping off m’lady at the airport, spent under the protective roof and elaborate arches of Pasadena’s Burlington Arcade, sipping a Handsome Roasters cappuccino and a warm, freshly baked cheddar and chive scone made by the folks at Float. Good way to start (or continue) a morning.

A too-short stop today at Single Origin, brought on by their tweet-out that they were serving up their Verve exclusive, El Salvador La Cuestona López.

One mach, a one-n-fun, and a cap. Not all for me.

Tasting notes from around the table… dark chocolate (capp) … celery (mach) … some sort of tropical punch thing (esp) … butterscotch candy (mach)1.

Nicely presented as well. Thanks!

  1. Upon saying this, my table-mates, mouths agape, and eyes wide, said, “did you say ‘butt-scratch candy’?!” A good laugh was had by all. Later, at Sur la Table, via a demo unit operated by a well-meaning salesperson, we actually were served an espresso that had notes of butt-scratch candy. So it was just foreshadowing. ↩
