New Sandwich Menu at Victrola

November 28, 2006

Tired of the same old Victrola sandwich menu? Yeah..we were too! So we asked our friend and Chef extraordinaire Melissa Nyffeler from Dinette restaurant to help us re-envision our menu. All of us are pretty excited about the new options that include wine cured salami with mama lil’s peppers, a smoked turkey breast with fresh rosemary mayo, brie with red grapes & mixed greens and an almond butter & northwest blackberry jam. All sandwiches are made on delicious Essential baking company bread. Stop and in and check it out for yourself.

Sumatra Lake Tawar..now available!

November 17, 2006

We just rolled out our new, incredible Lake Tawar Sumatra.
This meticulously processed, semi-washed Sumatra hails from the Lintong and Aceh regions surrounding Lake Tawar, and it will make you re-think everything you thought you knew about Indonesian coffee. Yes, the herbal, wood characteristics are here, but in the form of fresh cedar rather than sandalwood. The heavy, syrupy body is also present, but is a faultless second fiddle, providing focus and structure for the brilliant, complete acidity. Custard and blackberry jam begin in the dry aroma, pick up cedar in the crust and round out the pineapple, cannabis and tangerine in the cup. I can’t think of a better coffee to have an interesting conversation about–taste it and talk amongst yourselves.
Come on in and buy yourself a pound for home
