last weekend, we went down to kansas city on what we decided to call a little “coffeecation.” after reading this article in imbibe magazine a few months back about all the great things going on in kansas city coffee, we’ve been wanting to visit each of these places. before we left, we put together a google map of all the shops we wanted to visit. yep, we’re that crazy about coffee.

while we didn’t quite make it to every place on our list, we did visit several each day and maintained a constant state of caffeinated-ness all weekend long. we’ll be profiling a couple of the places we visited in more detail later this week and next week, but for now, a few instagrams from the trip overall.

we pretty much enjoyed every place we visited, and met some incredibly knowledgeable business owners and baristas throughout the weekend, but i think i have to say that my favorite thing was how oddly correct served their pourover coffee – we’ll definitely be ordering some of those 250ml chemistry flasks and making our own little coffee servers for at home. aren’t they so clever and creative!?
