Hello Friends,

Welcome to Honey Brews N Grinds!

My name is Melissa, which means Honey Bee. ‘Brews’ symbolizes my love for coffee and all things that are brewed, as I truly enjoy a good beverage. ‘Grinds’ symbolizes both the coffee grounds that lead us to the perfect cup, as well as the challenges and hard work we face in life, motivating me to persistently push against the current and inspire others to pursue their dreams relentlessly.

At first, I started Honey Brews N Grinds as an Instagram page to document the coffee shops and places that brought me so much joy. As I continued to take the next best step my passion and curiosity grew. I wanted to learn more, do more, and contribute to the community where I felt most at home.

My mission is to give back to the land where coffee is grown and highlight the coffee professionals who are passionate about coffee, connected to the community, and eager to contribute to the coffee world sustainably.

After the Color of Coffee Symposium, I got some great feedback and left the event inspired and encouraged to follow my dreams. I created this blog to share my passion and thirst for coffee knowledge and travel experiences with the world. 

I’ll be posting twice a month on all things coffee, community, and travel. I’m so excited to explore the wonderful world of coffee. We’re going to have different topics like:

The Grind 

Want inspiration for your next coffee purchase? We’re tasting and reviewing coffee from around the world. From farm to cup, we’re exploring specialty coffee near and far to help you decide what to add to your shopping cart. 

Community

Local Coffee shops are the heartbeat of a city. We will explore our favorite shops, share the stories of the Baristas, Roasters, shop owners and coffee professionals serving up world-class beverages and learn more about the fun things they are doing in the coffee world. 

Travel

We’re always on the search for our next great coffee travel adventure. Here you’ll find coffee experiences, travel tips and tricks through origin, trips, cuppings, and any type of fun coffee experience you can imagine. So pack your travel mug, and let’s explore!

Thanks for joining me on this coffee journey.

And remember…Sip Slow!

Peace, Love & Coffee,

Melissa
