✨2025 was a great year✨
Not because of what I did or where I went, but because of who was there along the way. Thank you to all my beautiful friends that made this year so special 🥰
It’s all smiles going into 2026 😀 Cheers🥂
The Archetype of Modern Man faces next the ultimate didactic: Destruction or Creation. Coming up Nov 12th, Destruction is the theme. I adapt text from Erich Fromm and will be joined by @rayj_violin86@rparky and @mlacello to perform Messiaen’s Quartet for the End of Time. See you there! Ticket link in bio.

We just made our first cups of the @fincahartmann Geisha Natural Process coffee and it did not disappoint to say the least! This is one of the most amazing cups of coffee I have ever tried. Words simply cannot capture the essence of this complex nose and flavor profile. We tried three different pour overs using 16.5/1 ratio of water to beans but switching up technique, agitation, heating/not heating the @origami_cup and number of pours. All cups were amazing and the flavor opens up significantly if you drink outside, especially on the nose. Thanks to @mlacello for sharing this experience and different techniques and to @proudmaryusa@proudmarycoffee for bringing this world-class coffee to us—I am so thrilled you chose ATX as your newest home! Also, when will we get a second location up north/central?? Eastside? 😉#coffee #atxcoffee #geishacoffee #pourover
