Benjamin Franklin is credited with the saying, "There are two things in life that are guaranteed - Death and taxes." What he didn't realize is that there is a third guarantee: Renovations and the associated construction will ALWAYS take longer than promised.

We're a bit behind on the building updates to our new facility on Hancock Street, and so it looks like it will be 2 more weeks before we can be fully operational, again. Our new target is September 24th, and we'll shoot up rockets when we're ready to roast again. Our new facility will ultimately be a great one!

Stay tuned, and thank you all for your continued support.

Greetings friends! As you may have seen, we are moving the roasting shop at the end of the month. We're not going far, it will be just a few blocks back down Hancock.

However, it will be necessary to suspend roasting for at least one week, during which time, the online ordering system will be closed. Please note our last day for roasting will be next Friday, August 28th, so be sure to get your orders in by Thursday 8/27 to ensure you don't run out of beans.

We will reopen as quickly as possible. We hope this doesn't cause undo heartache or panic in the streets.

(oh, and yes, we could use any and all help on Saturday the 29th if you are free and able to assist with the move.)

Greetings friends and coffee lovers around the world!! I know it’s been a while since we posted, but we have been very busy, and have exciting news to share.

First, on the new coffee front, we have a couple of beautiful coffees available, now. For those of you who love Hawaiian coffee, we have a gorgeous Ka’u Prime. Ka’u is the region of the big island, just to the South of the Kona district. The climate, soil and elevation are identical to the Kona area, and during the World of Coffee show, here in San Diego, in April, I had the opportunity to taste several Ka’u coffees and (IMHO) they were better than the Konas. While not an inexpensive coffee, it is a great treat. We bought a small amount to start and we’ll be able to get more if the interest is there. This coffee is medium roasted, and available as a one-pound minimum order, but we are happy to split it into two half-pound bags, upon request.
Additionally, we have taken stock of an organic Peruvian coffee from the San Ignacio region of Cajamarca. It’s really amazing, and has notes of toffee, caramel, a slightly fruity and sweet acidity, and rich finish. This is also medium roasted to maintain it’s beautiful characteristics. This is a “must-try” coffee and will be available in half-pound, full pound as well as two or five-pound bags for those looking for a higher level of achievement. Both of these new coffees are available now on the David’s Roasting site – www.davidsroasting.com.

And now for the other exciting news…
David’s Roasting will be moving – not far – but if you’ve been following the Undersea Adventures of Jacques Café, you know that flooding during heavy rains has been an ongoing problem on our street. Now it will be someone else’s problem!!

We are moving David’s Roasting just a few blocks down Hancock Street to the old Hancock Café. After we get the roasting shop up and running, our plan is to open a small café, not unlike Java Garden in the front half of that space. So not only will you be able to get your beans freshly roasted, but you can have a drink while you’re there! What could be better? The café will take a couple more months, but we’re excited about the new venture. We’re hoping not to have a lapse in roasting ability, and we’ll try to ensure everyone’s orders are fulfilled! Stay tuned for more information!
