Super Thanksgiving Savings

The Coffee Artisan would like to wish you a Happy Thanksgiving! As we sit back and reflect on all that we have to be thankful for this year, we realize that we're not just thankful for the things that went well or brought us success. We're also thankful for the challenges and difficult times we faced because they made us stronger and often forced us to rely on others - friends and family who were there in times of need. To me that's what Thanksgiving is all about, reflecting on the good and the bad and being thankful that your friends and family are there by your side through it all.

Every year at Thanksgiving we pull out all the stops to bring you substantial savings. To celebrate the holiday this year we've got several ways to save. First, we're lowering our free shipping threshold this weekend from $75 to $50. Second, we've put many varieties of our Fratello inventory on sale. Prices on individual boxes of your favorite Fratello varieties, including Cup of Excellence, have been reduced by $1.00. Last, but certainly not least, our popular mixed case is on sale this weekend for $6.00 off our normal discounted everyday prices. That's a guaranteed extra $1.00 off every box in your mixed case and FREE shipping with a $50 order.

The sale starts now and ends Monday, November 30th @ Midnight EST. Stock up for the holidays and share some great coffee with the friends and family you're thankful for!

Sincerely,

Chad Elliott
The Coffee Artisan

New Pods from Reuinion Island

Reunion Island has just announced some new pods that we've just placed an order for. They've also discontinued a few others, so we'll give you a run down of the changes you'll be seeing soon.

Discontinued Pods:
Tiramisu
Sweet Unity Farms Tanzania
RA Guatemala La Soledad
RA Guatemala La Soledad Dark
Decaf Dark SWP

Some notes on the discontinued pods: The Tiramisu was a limited time flavor, so this comes as no surprise. The Tanzania has been replaced by all of the non-seasonal offerings listed under the new pods below. For the remaining 3, these are now only available as 12 gram Extra Bold. We still have all of these in stock, but once they're gone that's it.

New Pods:
Spiced Eggnog
Organic Holiday Blend
Kilimanjaro Dark
Mahale Highlands
Zanzibar Blend
French Roast
SUF Vanilla Hazelnut
SUF French Caramel

Some notes on the new pods: Spiced Eggnog and the Organic Holiday Blend are two limited edition pods for the 2009 holiday season. The remaining new pods are all from the Sweet Unity Farms series. You can read more about this farming cooperative here: http://www.sweetunityfarms.com

We hope to have these new pods in stock by Thanksgiving!
