    Firaol Ahmed & Ethiopian coffee

    Firaol Ahmed emailed roastmaster Brian Franklin a few months ago, asking if he'd like samples of his Ethiopian coffee. Franklin get emails like this from random strangers a lot, but for some reason decided to look into this one. The young importer and seasoned roaster found a lot in common, and made a deal on some outstanding coffee. In this episode, Firaol tells about his history, while Mark and Brian discuss the backstory behind DoubleShot's Ethiopian coffee drama. Get the Ethiopia Guji Buku Abel at DoubleShotCoffee.com.

    Cristina and Ariel

    Cristina Garces and Ariel Montoya visited DoubleShot for the first time the week of Independence Day. After visiting Washington, D.C., they hit the coffee capital of the world, Tulsa, Oklahoma. Cristina is the daughter of Don Ernesto, who was once the largest independent producer of coffee in Colombia. Ariel was the owner of Hacienda El Boton, producer of the very first natural out of Colombia: our very own Maduro.
