BoiseCoffee is going to Coffee Common!

World-class baristas and roasters. Excellent coffee brands collaborating. Lessons on how to brew great coffee. Heaven? No, but close. I’m talking about Coffee Common.

Coffee Common brings together world-class baristas and roasters with shared values, to create unique experiences that introduce people to the nuanced joys of exceptional coffee. We believe that great coffee is, at its best, a collaboration of an empowered coffee farmer, an artisan coffee roaster, a dedicated barista, and an enlightened consumer. We believe that great coffee requires study, experimentation, craftsmanship, and humility.

When I heard Coffee Common was coming to New York City, I immediately marked it on my calendar. I’m going to college about an hour north of NYC, and this was the first widely-publicized coffee event that I’ve heard of coming to the city in the recent past. Needless to say, I’m super stoked.

Coffee Common was hosted in London in July and from the pictures and videos, it looked to be a huge success. It’s on again – this time being hosted at “A Startup Store” on Tenth Avenue and 19th St. in the Big Apple. It’s taking place this Thursday, Friday, Saturday, and Sunday, which means day 1 has already come and gone.

I’m making the short train ride over on Saturday and will be spending nearly the entire day learning tips and tricks on how to make exceptional coffee from some of the best in the industry. While there, I’ll take pictures and video and will do a recap post upon returning. I’m looking to not only expand my abilities, but also to meet some great people and share the joy of our mutual passion: superb coffee.

Coffee Common is being hosted by Google+, and as a result they are posting livestreams, or “hangouts,” through that social media service. What does that mean for you? You can join in on the fun all throughout this weekend! Check out the streams on Coffee Common’s Google+ page, here.

Also, follow my twitter (@BoiseCoffee) for regular updates on the event, as well as pictures throughout the day on Saturday.

Stay classy!
