Whinks Does Candlemaking

Whinks Does Candlemaking

Hold on to your britches everyone, things are about to get aggressively cozy. Imagine this: you’re settling down in your favorite reading nook, surrounded by (probably) way too much holiday decor, sipping on a lovely cup of freshly-brewed Whink’s coffee, ready to continue in the tales of (enter fictional character here). Your dog/cat/hamster/parakeet has nuzzled their way into that space right at the back of your knees. You’re in it for the long haul. There’s …

Introducing Whinks Brew Guides!

Introducing Whinks Brew Guides!

Black Lives Matter: Our Path to Learning and Growing as Allies, Business Owners, and Hopeful Citizens

I broke curfew a few times in high school. Nothing nefarious, by any stretch of the imagination, but the kind of curfew-breaking you come to expect from your average teenager. You know how it goes. You’re hanging at a friends house, maybe you’re playing some video games or having a few innocent drinks (gasp!). You’re in the moment and before you know it it’s 1am. Uh-oh. Time to roll. You get home and maybe your …

Coffee Cupping: A Beginner’s Guide

Coffee Cupping: A Beginner’s Guide

Coffee has made a tremendous journey to make its way into our cup, and while much of that journey is basically obvious to us (i.e. growing, harvesting, shipping, roasting, and brewing), some of the nuances of that process go unappreciated by the average coffee consumer, even some of the more discerning ones. In this post, I’ll touch on one of those behind-the-scenes processes, one that coffee professionals worldwide use to perfect their craft, bringing you …
