I have a new love of my life. Dr Pepper used to solidly occupy a prime section of my heart, but it has been edged out by coffee. This love affair turned long-term relationship started when I moved to Key West and discovered Café con Leche. The love deepened when I first walked into Baby’s Coffee and tasted the smoothest and most flavorful coffee of my life.
I had heard about Baby’s for years. Anyone in Key West is familiar with the iconic roasting house that started on Duval Street and is now located at mile marker 15, where it has been for over 25 years. Baby’s Coffee serves hundreds of fisherman, first responders, locals and tourists every day – and is a pillar of the Key West community. Last year, after more than 30 years of being family owned, it was listed for sale. We were familiar with the owners and their strong reputation in the coffee roasting and Key West community. The company’s legacy was something important to maintain and we started looking into the possibility of purchasing it.
Now, almost a year later, Baby’s Coffee is ours. It’s a business that never stops, in an industry that I’m new to and continually learning from. Unlike the book world, which is a solitary creative process – this one is full of interactions. There is something wonderful about a great cup of coffee, something that brings a smile to someone’s face and warmth into their life.
I am still an author first and foremost. But this is a new part of my life, one that I know will bring interesting people, experiences, and story ideas. If you’d like to give Baby’s Coffee a try, visit www.babyscoffee.com and use TORRE to save 20%. ❤️
