Every time I see photos of Vancouver I’m blown away. The city is just flat gorgeous. All that brick, and the flowers, hanging baskets, the mild climate, makes for one nice place to visit.

Can you envision yourself sitting at an outside cafe sipping some of the finest coffee around? Flowers hanging nearby, cool breezes blowing, people chatting, everything clean and green.

Today’s coffee enthusiasts, even the ones sitting at a streetside cafe, will find that much of today’s coffees are individualized. For instance, 100% Arabica coffees are sourced from some of the finest micro growing climates around the world. Each coffee bean is carefully examined for its overall quality and consistency in both the growing and milling process. Quality control measures help ensure the coffee conforms rigorous standards.

Look for roasting certification from a sustainable facility, certified by the following internationally accredited agencies: (OCIA) Organic Crop Improvement Agency, (Transfair) Fair Trade, (Utz Certified) Certified Responsible, (Rainforest Alliance) Rainforest Alliance, (SMBC) Smithsonian Bird Friendly and (SWP) Swiss Water.

You can then relish the flavor of that cup, take in the scenery from your streetside Vancouver cafe and just enjoy the moment.
