Ancient Delight in a Tiny Cup
One delightful cup of Turkish coffee courtesy of an awesome Distributor and a generous coworker. Delish!
Did you know that coffee, as we drink it now, was originally prepared in the Ottoman Palace? They were the first documented people to roast the beans prior to consumption. If you're a serious Bean Juice connoisseur as I am, you'll find great pleasure in tasting the original roast from Turkey.

Since we’re on the subject of coffee, and we’re an Environmental company, it would behoove us to recommend ways to recycle your old coffee grounds.
- Coffee Grounds are organic material, and they make great compost. Just ask this guy.
- Coffee Grounds have been known to be excellent fertilizer for rose gardens.
- Because of their odor-absorbing abilities, Coffee Grounds can deodorize refrigerators, vehicles, and other places where smells can be problematic.
- Much like Tulsa artist Karen of coffee-art.com, you can re-brew and paint with used coffee!
Do you have more tips on how to reuse/recycle coffee? If so, send us an email.
