Calgarian Coffee Habits Uncovered
Our ambassador Kelly Doody is always on the go. Social butterfly, she went around Calgary to ask people about their coffee habits.

Everything from the reusable sleeve to insulate our disposable paper cup to the bulk-sized bag of coffee beans found in most every corner store.
