The Perfect Cup

For most of us, a good cup of coffee is a critical component to our morning and daily routine. Doma Coffee takes "good" to the next level—going to the extreme end of fair trade and placing a huge emphasis on sustainability. It's certified organic, fair trade and is purchased through direct relationships with the communities that grow these amazing beans. On the sustainability side, Doma uses all ultra high efficiency lighting and prints all materials with non-toxic vegetable based inks on recycled paper. With all that said, their coffee is exceptional. We've been enjoying The Chronic and La Bicicletta for the last month and have sworn off the more mainstream swill to which we'd been mildly addicted. Both roasts were smooth, full bodied with a nice strong flavor and none of the bitter or burnt taste you often find at the corporate coffee joints. Pick up a pound or two and brew it using Doma's preferred method: the pour-over. Brewed one at a time and slow-dripped right into your mug. The perfect cup of coffee doesn't necessarily require more time, just more attention.

The Chronic, $14 and La Bicicletta blend, $15
