I drink coffee but I’m not picky about it. That lack of palate gives me the freedom to try coffee from different roasters without worrying whether I’ll hate a batch because the oak note is too strong or the finish is too bright.
One of the coffee companies in my rotation is Grounds & Hounds Coffee Co. They not only offer a wide variety of delicious coffee and cute merchandise, but also donate 20% of their profits to rescue initiatives. Coffee with a cause feels like a win-win to me.
I’m especially partial to their Paper & Slippers blend.
Back in 2023, they featured a version of their heartstrings mug featuring a black dog. The moment I saw it with its smudgy white details around the legs and snoot, I knew I had to have it. It was the perfect way to commemorate the scampy little dude who pulls at my own heartstrings every single day.
