Merry Matcha Monday! Our baristas hand whisk each of your matcha lattes individually. We use a ceremonial grade matcha from Magic Hour in Ojai as the base and from there it's up to you!

Our matcha is unsweetened but you can add honey or our house made vanilla syrup if you prefer. We combine it with your milk of choice: organic whole, oat, or almond. And the final choice - iced or hot? by @beaconcoffee

Please join us in welcoming Donnie to the Beacon team! Donnie joined us one month ago as a barista. She is incredibly diligent and has been working hard to make sure she does everything correctly. Aside from that, she's just a genuinely nice person and we are loving having her energy in our cafe!

Read on to learn a bit more about Donnie...

How did you get into coffee? "I remember my dad drinking black coffee when I was little, and I tried tasting it but didn’t like it 😂 then when I was older I started drinking chai, then matcha, then lattes and went from there! Over time, I grew more interested and wanted to learn more about it and how to prepare and serve it."

What is your go to drink? "Iced vanilla latte with whole milk!"

What do you do on your days off? "On my days off, if I’m not working my other job, I like to draw and watch shows, listen to music, read, spend time in nature, and go to the gym!"

What is your favorite part about working at Beacon? "My favorite part about working at Beacon is the people! My coworkers, the customers, everyone I’ve met so far is such an inspiring human being and I feel lucky to know them." by @beaconcoffee

Today is International Coffee Day! October 1 marks the first day of the “coffee year” that the International Coffee Organization uses for trade and production statistics. Aside from this practical purpose, it also marks a unifying day of celebration for coffee lovers around the globe.

Today, we’re thinking about what coffee means to us. Great coffee can’t happen in isolation. It requires the effort of everyone in the coffee chain. From growers and producers to roasters and to you. We’re so grateful to be able to collaborate with like minded folks at every step of the chain. Thank you for the care you take brewing beans we are proud to roast. by @beaconcoffee

The consummate coffee professional, Kelsey has touched almost every level of operations in her tenure with Beacon - from product quality, staff training and education to our ever expanding brewing curriculum for home enthusiasts, Kelsey is an invaluable part of Beacon’s continued success.

We are all better because of Kelsey, thanks to her we get so much more done quickly, and we always strive to do our best! She is the best teacher and she’s also hilarious 😆 If Kelsey compliments your work, know she means it! Beacon is so lucky to have you.
