to add spot to watch list
We were introduced to Samaritan Coffee after a great surf session in Huntington Beach last week. As you know, the water has been bitterly cold lately and after a couple of hours in the water we were looking for a hot cup of java. Walking down Main St. we ran into our friend and Huntington Beach resident Jeff Browe. Jeff’s been working on Samaritan Coffee for about a year and finally launched his goodness based brew and invited us in for a taste.
I’ve got to preface this by saying I am no coffee aficionado, but I brew a pot every morning and I know what I like and my friends I like this coffee. So far I’ve tasted just the House Blend but it’ll be a staple in my house for sure. There are three other flavors – French Roast, French Vanilla, and Hazelnut plus decaf (decaf is not a flavor for the math people). All are offered for the same price $11.89 for a single bag (12oz) plus shipping and handling.
So what makes this coffee special besides the taste? Well, the company is built with giving back as part of their DNA. A portion of every single bag purchased is set aside and then given back those in need. Samaritan doesn’t write monster checks to monster charities. They pride themselves on finding individuals in need and giving them a little help when they need it most. On Samartian’s website they explain it as “Life is unexpected. Sometimes a little support at the right moment can make all the difference. That’s where we come in. Our business model transforms our customers into benefactors—helping real people with real needs.”
Pretty cool. Check out their website – http://www.samaritancoffee.com
