S T U F F : P R O D U C T S KRAFTWERK FOR COFFEE You asked—Your Brand Café is delivering, with the rollout of kraft and black paper hot cups. These new products bear the same high-quality trademarks as the company's popular white paper hot cups, but now customers have even more options to create cups that match individual cafés. Expanding your brand has never been this much fun. www.yourbrandcafe.com GOOD VIBES FROM ESPRESSO PARTS Espresso Par ts is all about the good coffee and good vibes—what better way to embody super chillness than with this limited-edition Chemex 6-Cup Coffeemaker? Known as a pristine coffee maker, Chemex employs all of the chemically correct methods for brewing. Its hourglass-shaped flask is made entirely of glass that doesn't absorb odors or chemical residues. The Chemex Glass Coffee Maker has no moving par ts and will work forever, unless it is dropped or in some other way demolished. So get your good vibes on! Love, Espresso Par ts. www.espressoparts.com GESHA-LIKE ENANO FROM EQUATOR New crop Cerro Azul Enano, an ongoing exclusive offering at Equator, is back! Owned and operated by the quality-obsessed folks at Granja La Esperanza, the farm was planted exclusively with Gesha—or so they thought. As the trees began to mature, it became evident that some of trees were not Gesha, as they were compact with dense foliage. No one is sure what the true identity of this "dwar f" variety is. As such, the plants were dubbed enano, which means dwar f in Spanish. Granja La Esperanza began processing the Enano cherr y separately, and when Equator buyers tasted it in Colombia a few years ago, they were so blown away that they purchased the entire production of this Gesha-like coffee. Whatever the actual variety, the floral tones are certainly reminiscent of the Gesha type. www.equatorcoffees.com TEMPLE'S TALL BOYS The good folks at Sacramento, Calif.–based Temple Coffee Roasters believe coffee preparation and consumption should be an experience from beginning to end. While coffee is the heart of that, the packaging and purchasing should reflect the vibe of the product inside—Temple's new bags were created with this in mind. Inspired by tall, slender Scotch bottle boxes, Temple's bags achieve simplicity without sacrificing aesthetic presence. www.templecoffee.com 66 barista magazine
