As for the cuppings...great. This morning was our Washed Idido Misty Valley, Kenya Gaturiri, and a new crop Aceh Gayo Sumatra Decaf. Fun times. Ya'll are always welcome to drop in when you have time! If I know you're coming (and you get stuck in traffic) I'd even be happy to set up another flight for the latercomers.
Also, if ya'll are ever in town on a Thursday night and willing to put $5 on the line, Octane's "Thursday Night Throwdowns" are in full swing. One shot, one pour, one winner. Latte art fun for all to see.
