You won't find this on the shelf...

Leave it to our friends at DoubleShot Coffee Company in Tulsa, Oklahoma to come up with something over the top. I was reading some posts over at Pasteboard - the blog of Barista Magazine and saw a sweet picture of custom tamper handles. I then read the post which contained the follow letter from Brian Franklin - owner of DoubleShot:
Hey Barista Magazine people:
Jason (my employee) and I were in Colombia in December. We spent a few days in Concordia, which is an amazingly beautiful place. I picked up a piece of a stumped coffee tree and jammed it in my backpack to bring home. Slipped through customs with it and shipped it to Reg Barber. He carved three tamper handles out of it for us, which are fantastic. They are really beautiful. I was just back in Concordia last week with Isaiah (different employee), and we really had a good time and made some headway in learning more about coffee. Â Pretty exciting.
I hope all is well with you.
You have to head over to their blog and check out what they got Reg to make for them - very cool stuff!

That's all for this Tuesday. We are "stumped"....
