Taste the World’s Most Award-Winning Coffee at Intelligentsia’s Los Angeles Cafe
Last May, Intelligentsia Coffee & Tea purchased an auction lot of Hacienda la Esmeralda's famed Geisha coffee. This exquisite offering won Best of Panama in 2004, 2005, 2006, and again this year in 2007 and garnered $130 per pound, the highest amount ever paid for coffee at auction. On November 15th, Los Angelenos will have a chance to taste this storied brew and judge for themselves whether it measures up.
Greetings from Silver Lake
We're close. Finally. Our new LA café is on the verge of opening after many months of construction delays, inspection hold-ups, red tape and the usual fine-tuning that is needed to mediate the transition from conceptual plans to physical reality. It has been a long time coming, but the excitement here has become more palpable as the new staff can now see the tunnel's end.
