Mystic Monk Coffee Gets Rave Reviews From Catholic Retail Stores

There Is A New Gourmet Coffee Coming Soon To A Town Near You

Mystic Monk Coffee is barely a year old, yet this new commer to the gourmet coffee scene has become a household name for many.  Many Catholics are proud to confess they love this incredible tasting coffee roasted fresh by Carmelite Monks from the Monastery in Clark Wyoming.

When fans were asked why they chose Mystic Monk Coffee as their new gourmet coffee of choice, they will tell you things like Sue a catholic mom said “ It is the best tasting coffee I have ever had, and I love the fact that I am supporting a good catholic cause with every cup of coffee I drink”! As another  customer  put it  “We bought a commercial brand of Columbian coffee for years but find Mystic Monk Columbian Medium Roast far superior. Our orders arrive promptly and we're able to enjoy this better tasting coffee every day.”  

Fans everywhere agree that these monks have perfected coffee roasting. They sent delegates to a Catholic Marketing Network trade show in Ontario CA. in early February and the response was very enthusiastic by Catholic retailers across the country. Many Catholic book stores were excited by the opportunity that Mystic Monk Coffee offers their retail stores, “now we can finally offer an authentic Catholic gourmet coffee that rivals the  “mermaid” brand”, stated one retailer who visited the monks booth at the trade show.

The monks booth at the trade show offered free bags of gourmet coffee to each visitor who signed up for the monks mailing list, of course visitors were more than willing to do so for a 12 ounce bag of this delicious coffee!

Also available at the booth was  fresh brewed Mystic Monk Coffee in a variety of blends and flavors. The most popular was the signature blend called Mystic Monk Blend. The visitors loved the deep richness of this aromatic coffee, as Nicole put it “Nothing short of the perfect cup of coffee--smooth and robust, without a hint of bitterness. Other coffees--even the most prominent gourmet brands--pale by comparison.” 

A second favorite was the flavored coffee “Royal Rum Pecan” . “one visitor said he could really taste the rum. We assured him that the beverage was alcohol free, he agreed that the smell alone was enough to entice him to drink this coffee daily” stated Mickey the mother of the Prior, Father Daniel Mary, who attended the trade show along with her daughter Susan.

The monks are cloistered and thus do not leave their monastery, “having my mother and sister represent us at the trade show was a natural choice since they know our coffee and roasting process they were able to share our coffee with the Catholic retail stores who attended the CMN trade show. It is our hope that Catholic and Christian book store across the country will offer Mystic Monk Coffee to their customers, and serve our fresh brewed coffee in their stores, as a way to invite their customer to linger, browse and read books. This is a model that book stores like “Barnes and Noble” have used with great success, now with an authentic great tasting gourmet Catholic coffee it is possible for even small book stores to offer the inviting aroma and fresh coffee to their visitors.”  Shared Fr. Daniel Mary.
 
The Monks hope that many more retail stores will begin to carry their coffee, thus making it possible for many more people to share in the delight that comes from experiencing this “perfect cup of coffee.” Their coffee is available to everyone one line at: www.mysticmonkcoffee.com
