We brought in this natural and organic Sicilian wine in for all the lovers out there. This Nero d’Avola is a little spicy, a little salty and quite juicy; with flavours of mulberries and raspberries. It’s velvety and vibrant. Available online for delivery or in our east end shops. #bottleshop #shoplocal #winelover

Does anyone else obsess over camping gear? This is the perfect compact kit for having coffee in the bush... Besides making a great cup of coffee, I love how easy it is to clean the Aeropress...And the Porlex Mini grinder fits perfectly inside the Aeropress to save space. I know its cold and dreary these days but summer will be here soon enough! make sure your ready!

Tough but necessary lockdown measures. You don’t have to leave your house for dark horse though... We can bring it right to your door if you like!

It's been a beautiful run with this little coffee company, and this is where it all began- Queen Street East, 14 years ago... It's our anniversary tomorrow! Time to reminisce a bit and acknowledge our achievements and a great time to dream of all the bright things yet to come. Make sure you drop by one of our locations on the 18th and have a piece of cake with us! Also enjoy a 14% discount on coffee and our beans

Just thinking about all the young and amazing humans that have passed through our company over the years. One of the perks of owning a coffee shop is getting to work with the next crop of brilliant minds coming through the ranks. All of them like Roman candles blasting off on their chosen path, it’s inspiring to witness and to be a part of their journey. Thank you for all you do, we love having you with us, but we are even prouder to see all the things you will go on to do!

Remember that time we built a bakery in an old car garage? Shiplapped every board by hand... We’ve poured our heart and soul into building this little company. We’ve had wins, and we’ve had some losses, but we always keep moving forward. Covid’s reeking havoc on a lot of us... small businesses everywhere are taking a pounding... if there has ever been a time we’ve needed community support it’s now... we’re doing everything we can to keep the train on the track so please, if you can come out and support your local shops please do... @ The Artisan Factory

Something I love about this grinder is that it fits inside of an AeroPress. Making a perfect, super compact kit for camping or travel. If you are ordering for home delivery in Toronto and you don’t have a grinder this would be a great solution!
