I received a package that smelled my entire room up before I even opened it! The coffee is freshly roasted, local to my gifter's hometown in Tucson. He added an descriptive note about the coffee shop and a couple mugs to chug the coffee down. Sadly, the USPS broke one of the mugs. To his credit, he wrapped them in bubble wrap and noted "fragile" on the box. Thank you the cup'pa joe made my mornings more aromatic and lively.
