Gourmet Coffee

Roasting coffee transforms the chemical and physical properties of green coffee beans into roasted coffee products. The roasting process is integral to producing a savory cup of coffee. When roasted, the green coffee bean expands to nearly double its original size, changing in color, taste, smell and density. Unroasted beans boast all of coffee's acids, protein, and caffeine - but none of its taste. It takes heat to spark the chemical reactions that turn carbohydrates and fats into aromatic oils, burn off moisture and carbon dioxide, and alternately break down and build up acids, unlocking the characteristic coffee flavor. Flavored Coffee of the Month $7.99 lb.
tea
Specialty Tea

All tea comes from the Camellia sinensis bush which in the wild can grow 90 feet and higher. Today the Camellia Sinensis bush is kept to a height of three feet for easy cultivation. Fresh leaves of the tea plant are processed and their level of contact with oxygen determine resulting types of tea. The oxidation process is also known as fermentation. During oxidation, tea leaves undergo natural chemical reactions that result in distinctive color and taste characteristics. The main tea types include: Black tea, Oolong tea, Green tea, White tea.
