The Royal Bean is a great place to drop by to pick up a gift of the holidays!  We have  specials that includes a Royal Bean coffee mug and a 2oz bag of coffee, 2 0z bags of House blend coffee in a Christmas bag with a peppermint candy cane, and more!  In addition we have 12 oz prepackaged coffees with freshly roasted coffee Beans that are bagged and roasted locally!  If you’d like, you can buy for $2 each our 2 oz coffee bags and make up your own holidy gift basket or bag!  They are so cute, and with fresh locally roasted coffee!  Try our Winter Wonderland seasonal coffee available for a limited time!  In celebration of the holiday season, we’ve put four outstanding flavors together in an enticing medley: a winter wonderland of hazelnut and caramel blanketed by a powdery snow of vanilla and coconut. It’s guaranteed to keep the cold away and warm your spirit with holiday cheer!

Hello all!  Please drop by the Royal Bean to try out some of our fantastic seasonal recipes. Created with our gourmet peppermint syrup these drinks cannot be beat.  We can make you a peppermint sticks Mocha or Hot Chocolate.  We add fresh crushed peppermint candy to the whip-cream, if you like.  Drop by soon to try something special.  Let us know what you think!  More to come on my next post!

Hello coffee lovers!  We now have a new seasonal flavored coffee available at the Royal Bean.  We will start out with it in a prepackaged form, and then add it to our flavored coffees we serve!  Please note that we are a locally owned and operated Coffee House that strives to provide the best quality coffee available.  Our coffee beans including the Gingerbread Coffee in this post are roasted in Raleigh, NC at Stockton and Graham.  Our coffee is of the highest quality and very fresh! It sounds so good: The spicy-sweet confections of Eastern Europe inspired this coffee. We’ve captured the scent and flavor of warm loaves of gingerbread fresh from the oven and complemented it with our blend of cinnamon and hazelnut for a uniquely snappy taste! 

Free coffee tomorrow at the Royal Bean!  On a table in front of the counter we’ll have three house blends to taste test for free, then vote to help us decide on the best blend and our next house coffee blend.  Come in the morning before it ends!

Hello Royal subjects near and far!  We are working very hard at the Royal to offer fantastic customer service and the highest quality in our products.  Just this past weekend we held a ‘cupping’ to take steps to improving our house blend.  We’ve already made special effort to improve our Espresso shots by stepping up quality control on many fronts.  We now have three ‘potential’ house blends to choose from, but we need your help! During this week starting tomorrow morning at 9 AM we are going to put out three self-services Coffee pots, each filled to the top with our newly create coffee blends!  Come to the Bean to taste these blends for free!  I’ll setup a sign and a station for this coffee test in front of the counter.  Please join us to choose the new house blend for the Royal Blend.  This will be our house blend and we will also sale it in prepackaged form, too.   If you want to send an email about the coffees you taste, then email us; suggestions@royalbeancoffeehouse.com.
 

I am trying to learn how to use Photoshop, so please excuse the white box around the picture of the Royal Bean to the right of the text!  I’m sick of working on the picture, so there you go!

Thank you to everybody who participated at the “cupping” we held at the Royal Bean this past Saturday!  We are working to develop our own signature blend for our house coffee, so we very much appreciate the help so far!  We have narrowed down our list to two coffee blends.  Details coming soon!  This week we’d like to offer those who could not come to the cupping the chance to taste test our two blends and compare those to the house blend we have been using.  Based on the results we will have chosen a new house blend designed by our customers.  Tomorrow or Wednesday we will start the taste test.  I will send an update tomorrow out on my Twitter! 

You are invited to our Anniversary
 Celebration
On Saturday, November 14, 2009
 

We will be celebrating all day! Come help us choose our new custom Royal Bean House Blend!  We will be having a “Cupping” at 10:00am to evaluate, learn and taste varieties of coffee blends to develop our own custom blend.
 *NOTE:Cupping coffee is the evaluation process that is used for coffee professionals when purchasing coffees, or for creating blends.  It provides the most accurate flavor of each coffee, because there is no filter involved in the process.  It is a great exercise for customers to go through so they can better understand why you offer the coffee varietals you buy, and also provides a clear picture of what encompasses your blends, and future blends.**************

Door Prizes!      Specials!        Live Local Music Saturday Night!    Celebration will be going on all day!
3801-137 Hillsborough Street, Raleigh  NC  27607

The Fall is my favorite time of the year!  With the leaves turning from green to bright reds and yellows, this is one beautiful time of the year.  To celebrate we at the Royal Bean will soon offer the Harvest Pumpkin Latte made with our finest flavors including; pumpkin spice syrup, hand made whipped cream, and caramel sauce!  If you’d like, we can serve the drink in our custom Lattee cups with saucer or in our triple insulated paper cups.  Check back on this blog real soon for a photograph!
