I was a distributor but seems everyone is gone. Any contact info would be great.

I am working on a story for barista magazine and wondering if you could tell me what flavors you were pairing in your specialty drink with what flavors in the espresso. Your drink is going to be a great example for my article and I want to get it right (especially considering I didn't get to take home the scoresheet with all my flavor notes on it - of course, neither did you).
Hope you are well and hope to see you in Portland. Let me know the flavors if you would as soon as you can.
Thanks!

Happy new cup.
