what can I say๐ฅฒ?
This weekend has been so many things and all of them so, so good. I was able to meet so many dedicated, insightful, and encourging folks in the industry. My head and my heart are both with advice that I can't wait to impliment as we step towards launching our first cafe and mobile coffee cart soon.๐ซจ
I'm inspired by the artistic bag designs, ๐จand dreaming big after seeing all of the sweet tech and cafe designs. Watching incredible baristas from all over the world compete in the Lattรฉ Art championships showed me just how incredibly global specialty coffee is. How it transcends cultures, is shaped by culture and shapes culture in meaningful ways.
I can't wait to begin working with some of the producers (farmers) that I've met and to click buy on a few of the super cool products that I discovered, made with so much paasion by someone dedicated to making your coffee expierence even better.
And San Diego, cmon! This first time vistor was left wanting more time with you! What a beautiful city you have๐. And those Padres fans.....maaaaaayyybe, almost, or kinda close to rivaling us crazy Philly fans.
I am so honored that I get to do this with me life. Thank you to everyone who supports this brand. I am grateful that Working Class Coffee is your choice. You are amazing๐คฉ๐คฉ.
Onwards in caffinated bliss!
