Queen City Coffee – Yippee Ki Yay Mother F***** (12oz.)
About The Product: It’s that special time of year again! This is a perfect (12oz.) blend of coffee that reminds us of Swiss Miss mixed with homemade toffee, and Roy Rogers sequin shirts. Nothing says it’s the holiday season like crawling through vents and kicking some serious Hans Gruber ass. And nothing will get you more prepared to save the day than our annual holiday coffee. This year we’re rocking a blend of washed Guatemalan and honey-processed El Salvadoran coffees from Lake Atilan and Juayúa, respectively. These two complementary coffees are the perfect expression of sweet chocolate notes & subtle nuttiness all wrapped up in a smooth body that finishes with mellow acidity. It’s guaranteed to get your inner Roy Rogers fan yelling, “Yippee Ki Yay Mother F*#%er!” all season long.
About The Company: We believe that honest relationships, from farmers to consumers, achieve an equitable and sustainable coffee supply chain. In many ways, Queen City started in the mid-2000s while we worked, researched, and played in rural Africa. From Zimbabwe to Rwanda, we spent nearly a decade coordinating humanitarian programs, organizing research projects, and kicking around on humble soccer fields with friends. We learned about community in Africa — real, honest community.
Life eventually brought us back to our roots, back to Colorado and the great city of Denver. Along the way, we indulged our passion for coffee by moonlighting as baristas and roasters, and this made our next project an easy progression — we love our farmer friends + we love our city, the Queen City of the Plains + we love coffee — so we started a company that combines all these things!
Collective coffee means we’re doing this together — we have real, tangible connection with our coffee farmers; we know the conditions of their production; we then small-batch roast their coffee in the city we love and we proudly serve it in Denver’s historic Baker neighborhood. We believe everyone is welcome to this ragtag group because good coffee should build the collective good.
