Ahead of Our Time?
Possibly?
I’d like to point out that Texas, while admittedly not a coffee and espresso powerhouse, does have its share of ahead-of-the-curve coffee folks.
I posted on my other coffee blog earlier about the similarities that one World Barista Champion’s coffee company has to my own company in terms of greens selection (two of their three beans in their espresso are currently in my current offerings). This blog’s other half, Jason Haeger, used that same coffee as his S.O. espresso for his run at the title of South Central Barista Champion. All of which occurred before Klaus and company began their run as a roasterie and consulting company.
No disrespect to the former World Barista Champion and his cohorts… none whatsoever. We just like to note that a few Texans seem to be hot on the same brain wavelength when it comes to selecting good greens. That’s a fun thought for us, though maybe not so much for the Danes. But.. why not revel in it, as an “indie scenester” revels in throwing away his CD’s of a band once it hits the big time, secure in the knowledge that he “knew them a long time ago before they made it big,” that he, “knew them when ____…”
If you haven’t checked out Klaus’s company site (and blog) then what are you waiting for? for Jason and me to tell you?
Congrats, Klaus, Peter, Casper and Linus on the launch of the Coffee Collective.
