Lakeview's Veteran Coffee Roaster

The Coffee & Tea Exchange has been roasting a carefully selected variety of fresh coffee beans from all over the world, right here in Chicago. Visit this classic Lakeview purveyor of coffees and teas for exceptionally crafted, top quality coffee (and tea). When you enter The Coffee & Tea Exchange retail store, you'll immediately sense their deep commitment to product; coffee and tea lovers will be in seventh heaven. And for Chicagoans preferring decaf, you'll be happy to know that the Exchange uses only the water process method for removing caffeine from their roasts.

Each bean variety at The Coffee & Tea Exchange is roasted individually to its flavor peak in their Chicago warehouse. For the customer, this means an assortment of unique, full flavors to satisfy an array of tastes.

Tastybeat recommends these two medium roast coffees:

• Kenya AA -earthy, a little heavy with floral notes, almost chocolatey


• Tanzanian Peaberry -smaller, sweeter beans that provide earthy dual flavors

Other superb picks can be found among their Fair Trade, Organic shade-grown coffees. Of these, the Guatemalan is a customer favorite, but be sure to inquire because they usually offer 3-4 fair trade coffees at any given time.

The knowledgeable staff at The Coffee & Tea Exchange, including Steve's daughter Lauren, are more than happy to help you with your selection. And while you're shopping, grab a fresh cup of brew for just $1.00--the best deal in town!

Happy Sipping,
Tastybeat
