Recap: Northeast Regional Roasters Retreat in CT!

This weekend was the 5th Annual Northeast Regional Roasters Retreat in Lyme, CT.  Cafe Imports sponsored the event, and our President Andrew Miller was there presenting a very interesting class on Microlots.  Andrew also brought along some preshipment samples of our much anticipated Colombian Microlots and cupped with the roasters that attended the event.  It was an awesome weekend.

Picture this...a bunch of roasters on a farm, sleeping in tents, and getting nerdy over coffee for 3 days.  It was a blast!  Local farmers set up a farmers market for the attendees Saturday, and it was really nice to grab some fresh veggies and other local goodies. 

We are very excited by all of the momentum being created by these roasters in the Northeast, and couldn't be happier than to support them in their education!
