Caribou
Our Story
Here at Caribou Coffee, we believe this to be true: that if passion, hard work and excellence go into an endeavor, the outcome will be a quality experience, and therefore rewarding.
In 1990, during an adventure through the Alaskan wilderness, our founders journeyed to the top of Sable Mountain. After a strenuous climb, they reached the summit and were rewarded with a sensational view: the boundless mountains, a clear blue sky, and a herd of caribou thundering through the valley. That was truly the "aha" moment.
The breathtaking panoramic view became the entrepreneurial vision for Caribou Coffee - a company that believes excellence is a product of hard work, and that life is too short for anything else. This vision serves as a guide as we strive to create a special experience for you here at Caribou Coffee.
Now, we invite you as our guest along this path. Enjoy a moment, or several, filled with the highest-quality coffee and our unparalleled service.
ETHIOPIAN FINJAL (on Caribou Ethiopia Fin...)
dpablo19 | Mon, 09/05/2011I really expected to hate this coffee given that its produced by a mass roaster. This coffee wasn't over roasted like most mass produced coffee. There was good balance in the cup. It was far more nuanced than I expected. I tasted orange and flowers, like a lot of other well-produced Ethiopian coffees. The bag I received was roasted fairly recently (at least within 3 weeks, which would have not been okay for espresso, but fine for a pour over). I went through it fairly quickly.
