The Fresher The Beans, The Better The Brew

Everybody’s familiar with this old adage because, well, it’s true! The longer the beans stay in a bag, ship across the country and stay on the shelf, the more flavor it loses. Manny’s Coffee Shop uses only freshly roasted beans so the quality profile of our coffee is always rich and bold. It’s possible that Starbucks coffee can be shipped over numerous days and could have spent who knows how much time on the shelf waiting to be used. Local coffee offers a wider array of flavor compounds that are always delivered with an unmatchable level of freshness. Manny’s Coffee Shop delivers fresher beans and that means a better overall brew!

Locally Sourced Ingredients

Local coffee providers like Manny’s Coffee Shop, source everything they need, from ingredients to napkins, from local stores and companies. Starbucks has huge corporate contracts in place that source products from outside the country. When you support local coffee shops, you’re supporting the community and the people that work within it. It’s a bonus for two reasons, you get to support the community you live in, and you get a heck of a good cup of coffee as well!
