We all love our favorite caffeinated beverage, so we got very excited when our neighbors at The East Cut announced The East Cut Coffee Passport.

The East Cut made the announcement on their site.

It’s not just about a cup of coffee but also about the history of our favorite morning beverage.

Did you know that The East Cut is not just home to incredible coffee shops, but also boasts an extraordinary coffee history of innovation? It’s right here that the brilliant minds behind Folgers pioneered the “cup-tasting” idea, revolutionizing how we assess the flavor of coffee. Before this game-changer, coffee beans were chosen based on appearance alone, but Folgers brought a new level of sophistication to the process. 

R.W. Hills, another coffee pioneer in our neighborhood, unleashed a coffee packaging revolution. His groundbreaking technique, known as “vacuum-packing,” removes air from coffee packages, preserving every bean’s rich, aromatic goodness. Even today, it’s the go-to method for keeping your coffee fresh and flavorful. Imagine a journey through The East Cut where you not only savor exceptional coffee but also experience the very history that shaped the way we enjoy it today! 

Sounds like fun to us.
