Video: Caffé Vita at the Pike Street Artisan Food Festival

| September 28, 2010

Caffé Vita participated in the inaugural Pike Street Market Artisan Food Festival this past weekend and we had a wonderful time. The sun shone down and we served espresso drinks all weekend long. All proceeds from drink sales will be donated to the Pike Market Clinic and Senior Center.

Thanks to everyone who came out to see us!

Unique Opportunity for You: Brazil Cupping Friday Morning

| September 27, 2010

This Friday, October 1st, at 11 a.m. our green bean buyer Daniel will be holding an intimate coffee cupping experience with some beans he’s brought back from his recent trip to Brazil. Coffee cuppings happen every day behind the scenes at Caffé Vita, but what’s unique about this one is that they are all different coffees that come from the same farm in Brazil. This will allow tasters to experience the subtleties and differences between coffees that come from the same farm, but differ in processing and varietal. Also, these beans are extremely fresh. Daniel brought them back in his luggage from Brazil. Beans harvested at a similar time would take another month to get here through normal shipping channels.

We have only a few spots left to participate in this unique experience. Cupping will take place at 11 a.m. at our Capitol Hill location.
