Cafe Driade or Open Eye are good bets

Counter Culture Coffee has a bit of a cupping every Friday, don't' they? Even if they don't, those guys will absolutely know the best coffee in the metro area. And most of the rest of the tri-state area as well.

3 cups in Chapel Hill is a must see. Yes counter culture coffee has a cupping that starts at 10 and is open to the public....at the end, usually around 11, they will give you a tour of the rest of the roasting facility. Durham is a fun place as well, try Joe Van Gogh..copa vida...madhatters.

I'm on bar at The Coffee Garden this morning if they're passing through Charlotte. We're just off I-485 on the south east side.

Other spots in Charlotte that are worth a stop are Dilworth Coffee at East Blvd and Kenilworth and Central Coffee at the corner of Central Ave and Louise. Brent does also do a cupping at the Counter Culture Charlotte training center, same time as they do it at the mothership. His training center is at Davidson and 15th, just off of I-277.

Hope that helps.

Will do! Haven't touched base with them since they left but they should have finished their journey by now.
