McDonalds coffee! Sometimes guests want to see the first Starbucks so I take them there.

Yeah, I've had it off and on over the years. Lately we've started using it in our espresso machine.

I drink it in Yakima. They have a pair of coffee shops around Yakima that serve it. Good stuff.

What an unfortunate name choice, for what should be an appealing product. STUMPtown?
It looks like a Portland company, with locations in Portland, New York, and Seattle.

Stumptown is Portland's nickname

That makes it even worse!
Well, the nickname’s origins aren’t so pleasant. Back in the 1800s, loggers nearly strip-mined the forests around Portland for the luxurious lumber provided by the wealth of evergreens that grow in the area. In 1847, growth was so rapid that stumps from trees cleared for roads sat unattended until there was the manpower necessary to remove the stumps. In 1850, Captain John C. Ainsworth was quoted as saying that there were “more stumps than trees” in Portland.
There's always this option, for a quick buzz!

Funny you should mention it-- I was just reading about this new bike shop/cafe opening in Chicago-- never heard of Stumptown until today.

Had it in Portland and it's quite good. Thought there were only branches in Portland and Manhattan.
