It was the first such establishment that actually succeeded in the small town. People who go there think they are coffee snobs. People always rave at the massive selection and rightly so -- this place has like 20-30 different coffees in 3 gallon containers. Customers can get whatever coffee flavor/style/roast/origin they want. The problem is much of that coffee has been sitting there for a long long time. It is dried out and lacking flavor. Access to lots of types of coffee isn't impressive if it is not fresh. I would rather have a fresh "Breakfast Blend" than infinite choices of stale coffee.
