ritual coffee at maker faire 2010

phil May 24, 2010

here’s the coffee counter from the  ritual trailer (‘sputnik’) at this year’s maker faire:

here it was last year at the eat real festival in oakland:

we got a flight of espresso.  $7 got you a shot of each of these costa rican coffees:

  • five candles seasonal blend
  • el alto, grace calderon jimenez
  • los chachones, arturo chacon

    the five candles was my favorite.  I’m not big on tasting notes, but it tasted buttery.

    I wasn’t very diligent with the pictures, so I present here 2/3 of a flight:

    and of course the bike cart (photos here as well) was there:

    a friend sent me this new york times post about kickstand, who have a mobile, bike-transported iced coffee and single-serve drip setup.

    I’ve only seen the ritual bike in the bay area:

    This guy was selling iced coffee at sunday streets in the mission last july.
