Our “Sense of Urgency” Blend has been named as a finalist for Outstanding Design Collaboration in the 2024 Sprudge Design Awards! At the heart of this collaboration with Chef Thomas Keller lies an exceptional blend of coffees, each carefully selected to mirror The French Laundry’s commitment to excellence. Drawing inspiration from The French Laundry’s iconic blue door and clothespin, the bag features an elegant and understated design that mirrors the sophistication of Chef Keller’s flagship restaurant. The collaboration embodies a shared commitment to quality and creativity. Voting is open through January 7 and we would love your support: https://lnkd.in/gfpGVq4N
