About Me:
My coffee career began with Visions Espresso in Seattle. After two and half years in equipment/accessory sales and coffeehouse consulting at Visions I left my Sales Manager position to open Caffe Mela in Wenatchee, Washington with my wife in June 2006. We've been open five years and we began roasting just over a year ago to explore and push the limits of coffee excellence in our community.
About My Company:
Caffe Mela is Wenatchee's Community Coffeehouse and Bakery. The 2300 sq. ft. shop features an in-house coffee roastery and bakery, live music from local and national acts, delectable grub, and wonderful old world ambience.
