Music and Coffee!

One of the highlights of my time here in Savannah has been the pleasure of being a member of the Savannah Philharmonic Chorus. On Friday, Oct. 2 the chorus along with the Savannah philharmonic orchestra will be putting on a performance of Verdi’s Requiem.

In hopes of encouraging people to attend the concert, Cup to Cup Coffee Roasters is offering a discount to anyone who purchases a ticket to the Requiem. So, our normal price of $12 a pound will drop to $10 for anyone who buys a ticket. We’re going to do this by the honor system since there’s not a easy way to discern who has and hasn’t bought a ticket. Just give us a call (912-856-5866) or contact us through the website when you’re ready to make an order, mention you have a ticket for the performance, and you’ll get your discount. So if you buy say ten pounds of coffee (a good round number) your cost will be $100 instead of $120. What a deal! We’ll even keep this offer going for one week after the concert. Now, get out there and order a ticket! Peace.

News!

Remember that news I was mentioned earlier? Well I’m ready to let you in on it.

We are pleased, nay MORE than pleased to announce that Cup to Cup Coffee Roasters will be partnering with the Mansion on Forsyth Park to present a Coffee oriented class in their 700 Kitchen Cooking School. Chef Darin Sehnert, the culinary director of the school has graciously allowed Cup to Cup into his kitchen, and he will be adding a cooking portion to the class.

We had a test run last week to work out the kinks and see what should be added and taken away, and we are very excited about getting this started.

The class will consist of learning how to make some delicious desserts to go with you coffee at home, then we will be diving into the world of coffee, learning about coffee producing countries, processing methods, and what makes your morning cup o’ joe taste like it does. We will also take you through a “cupping” and talk about making your home coffee experience the best it can be.

Classes won’t start until the end of the month or the beginning of next month, but we wanted to go ahead and fill you in on the exciting news! Peace.

Coffee Tasting!!!(plus as many more exclamation points as it takes to get your attention)

Okay, so this image is slightly misleading because we won’t be in Argentina nor will we be enjoying the above pictured tasty drink However . . .

This Saturday, June the 6, 2009 beginning at 10: A.M Cup to Cup Coffee Roasters will be hosting a coffee tasting inside the main hall (concourse? large space?) of the  building where our shop is located. 

You’ll have a chance to sample several of our coffees (Brazil Serra Negra, Guatemala San Pedro la laguna, Tanzania Peaberry Songea) in a variety of brewing methods (regular drip, french press, gold filter . . . bring your own sock and you can have cowboy coffee if you’d like). You’ll also be treated to some very (very) tasty homemade Italian cookies!

Need directions to our place? Just click here. There really isn’t any reason for you not to come, so just come. We’ll be expecting you! Peace.
