There's nothing more exciting than introducing people to authentic, delicious coffee that is produced with care by talented farmers dedicated to fair, democratic principles, sustainable agriculture, and the cultivation of the highest quality coffees imaginable. For more than a decade, we have spent an unprecedented amount of time working side by side with our partners at origin to source the greatest coffees in the world, directly from the farmers themselves, celebrating the individuals, farms, and cultures behind each harvest. Coffee is a seasonal fruit, and like any responsible purveyor of fresh produce, we only sell coffee at the peak of flavor and freshness; and we roast skillfully, in small batches, to bring out each coffee's singular characteristics and "taste of place."
We also have a mission to create cutting-edge coffee people, and through our regional training centers and industry-leading coffee education, this mission extends beyond our employees to our customers, friends, and ultimately to the general public. We've found that the more informed you are about coffee, the better we are forced to perform. So, browse around, join our 'insider' newsletter, and by all means let us know what you think!

A Season for Coffee Lovers |
|
11-28-08
We hope that everyone had a great Thanksgiving. It's hard to believe, but the winter holidays are fully upon us … Monday is December 1! If, like us, you're already making holiday gift lists, don't forget the coffee lovers in your life! Luckily for all of us, many of our farmer-partners have had a particularly good harvest year, and so this winter's coffees are even more delicious than we could have hoped.
Our Holiday Blend 2008 is a richly textured Vienna Mélange offering deep notes of cinnamon, fallen leaves, milk chocolate, and ginger. Keeping with our holiday tradition of giving, one dollar per pound sold will benefit a new coffee school in Lintong, Sumatra.
The 2008 lot of Aida's Grand Reserve is incomparably elegant and flavorful in the cup: an all-peaberry microlot selected from the three of the most legendary farms in Central America—Aida Batlle's Fincas Los Alpes, Kilimanjaro, and Mauritania. Layered notes of peach, plum, and spice rest atop the coffee's sublime Bourbon sweetness with a singular intensity that only peaberries can produce. This is truly legendary, once-in-a-lifetime coffee. *We will give away a limited-edition, hand-made bag from Finca Mauritania to one lucky person from each of our three Aida's Grand Reserve roast dates.
We also offer excellent mug, T-shirt, and press pot gift packs, and, for the gift that keeps on giving, our Single-Origin and Espresso Subscriptions are available in 3- and 6-month installments.
Plus, our super-low $3.00 Holiday Flat Rate Shipping on all orders within the continental United States continues through the end of the year!
Sincerely,
Nathan |

|
11-27-08
The first roast date of the 2008 lot of the legendary Aida's Grand Reserve is Monday, December 1. With the arrival of the vacuum-packed bags of this incomparably elegant and flavorful coffee, Counter Culture Coffee received a small number of limited-edition, hand-made bags from Aida Batlle, the dedicated and talented owner-operator of Finca Mauritania.
On each roast date (Dec. 1, 8, and 15), we will give away one of these special bags to a lucky, randomly selected online customer who orders Aida’s Grand Reserve.
An all-peaberry microlot selected from the three of the most legendary farms in Central America—Fincas Los Alpes, Kilimanjaro, and Mauritania—Aida's Grand Reserve offers layered notes of peach, plum, and spice rest atop a sublime Bourbon sweetness with a singular intensity that only peaberries can produce.
