Tony's Carmelita Blend Medium Roast Ground - 24oz

"Whether it’s a rainy day movie, knock-knock joke, or dance move – everyone needs their go-to. Carmelita is the go-to brew, both smooth and delicious with notes of cocoa and caramel. For visiting family over the holidays or hosting the badminton team for brunch, Carmelita is guaranteed to be a crowd-pleaser. We introduced locally roasted coffee and espresso to Bellingham in 1971, becoming one of the community's cultural staples. From the beginning, we roasted our coffee in small batches, selecting the best beans we could find from around the world. From the start, it was clear to us that coffee brings people together. Even after 50 years, not a day goes by that we don’t discover something new. We have a passion for learning and continually strive to develop the best flavors possible from our coffees. We are keenly aware of the many hands it takes to prepare a great cup of coffee. Alfredo Pacas, a third-generation Salvadoran coffee farmer and a direct trade partner of ours, says it best: “When I taste a great cup of coffee, I stop, because I know that it’s a miracle.” We travel frequently to meet with farmers and taste improvements in cup quality. These relationships help to broaden our understanding and appreciation for all that goes into making a great cup of coffee."
