Best Coffee...

In beautiful Traverse City, the most fantastic and delicious coffee is distributed and roasted by Higher Grounds. They located near the Old State Hospital and Left Foot Charlies tasting room. The coffee beans they sell are certified organic and fair-trade and their business ethic is one of the most sustainable and fairest I have ever seen! Who wouldn't want to support that... and again, drink the best cup of coffee EVER. No joke. 

Another one of my many favorite things about this company is: if you call or order ahead... they do not sell you coffee they roasted yesterday... they roast for your specific order the DAY you come in to pick it up to ensure you the highest quality cup! Genius! 

Again, I love that when I go in and order a cup of coffee, they cater DIRECTLY for me! Gotta love quality customer service! Their drip coffee makes exactly your cup, no more, no less. No wasting is going on here :) If I want it "to go", they do not have your typical paper cups. They serve you your delish cup in a normal mug and ask that you please bring the mug back to the store. Again - no waste. It is incredible. Truly.

Please check out their website: www.highergroundstrading.com and read about them! They're truly a one of a kind business :)
