Good Trip Coffee Co Mayan Cocoa Organic Infusion





   Today I bring to you something a little different from my norm. These are cold brew bags from Good Trip Coffee Co. While traveling in Nicaragua, Angela & Andrew began buying green coffee from local markets, roasting it on the stove, and making cold brew. They played with different roasts and created drinks using simple ingredients. The results were delicious, and ignited an exciting chain of events. On October 11, 2016, Good Trip Coffee Co. was born. Two months later, they opened their website and launched their product line of artisan brews.

   This is their Mayan Cocoa Organic Infusion. It consists of Nicaraguan coffee blended with raw cacao, cinnamon, nutmeg, and a dash of cayenne. The coffee comes from woman producers of the Miraflor Estelí Region of Nicaragua. The cold brewing process is super simple. Drop 2 compostable bags of coffee in a jar, place in the fridge, and wait 12-24 hours. The resulting brew was super tasty. I’m typically not a big fan of Toddy cold brews, but this was super smooth. Their bags must filter the grounds very well. Super chocolatey. Nice kick of spice & heat. I bet this would be delicious both with cream & hot as well. Very well done cold brew bag system by these folks for sure!

   Many thanks to Angela & Good Trip for the tasty coffee. Excited to try the other blend I have from them.

   Today I feature a tasty bean from Alamance Kaffee Werks out of Graham, North Carolina. Alamance Kaffee Werks was started from the enjoyment of amazing coffee by Daniel Krenzer & Kevin Jordan. Daniel's love of coffee came after visiting Corlesto Coffee Roasters in Billings, Montana. He's been to Costa Rica and Thailand, two totally different coffee experiences, and became enthralled with what these regions are offering the coffee world and how coffee is embedded in the culture. When not working with coffee, he works as a school psychologist in public education, primarily working on behalf of students with disabilities. And as such, part of his proceeds go towards non-profit organizations that provide mental health supports for children with Autism and brain injuries. Kevin's story started while on a mission trip to El Salvador. It has been through the introduction to roasting he has been blessed to experience once again a truly excellent cup of coffee. The tast...

   Today I have a wonderful bean from the folks over at Oak & Bond Coffee Co. After developing a passion for coffee, Oak & Bond Coffee Co. founders, Brian and Lauren McCulloch, continued to explore for their perfect cup. they were in search of a rich, vibrant coffee that they could share with their family and friends. They first found their perfect cup from a small micro lot in the Chapadas de Minas region of Brazil. It was at this point that Brian and Lauren took the leap to open Oak & Bond Coffee Co. To this day their goal remains, share their passion for sourcing the highest quality coffee with you.    This is their Chardonnay wine barrel aged Ethiopia coffee. It's a Semi Washed Guji bean with the barrel being sourced from Napa, California. Oak & Bond notes flavors of bright white grape, lemon, watermelon, & cocoa. First of all, love the packaging.
