The Mast Brothers

2010-07-29T06:51:00.000-07:00

The life of a mariner is one given over to wanderlust—the quest for adventure, crossing unseen horizons to secure precious goods—only to bring them back to their home port. This same love of adventure and curiosity defines the brotherhood of Rick and Michael Mast. They share a fiercely independent spirit, leaping into the unknown and trusting that they’ll find the answer through endurance and dedication to their craft.

They began their voyage in their apartment, using a homemade machine to process cacao beans. Over time they cultivated their creation, sourcing beans from family farms in Madagascar, Venezuela, the Dominican Republic, and Ecuador. Each bar is handmade with incredible reverence for the process and history of chocolate. They are bound in ornamental papers and golden foil like a collection of rare books. Each bar offers its own story of flavors, and no two are exactly alike.

The Mast Brothers are now planning to navigate the mighty Atlantic, sailing to the Dominican Republic in search of beans and a deeper connection with the folks who grow them. Before they begin the next chapter, The Scout spent time with Rick and Michael documenting their story.

I tested the bat cup sleeve with hot liquids and it effectivly protects your hands and insulates your drink. Hot or cold! There is a thin layer of polyfill inside the body of the bat to help protect your hands even more! The bat cup sleeves also features beautiful stitching on the wings to resemble a real bat wing! :)

Was a nice creative challenge to get the right look of frothy milk and coffee mixing together to create forms, everything from mandalas, Buddha statues and a Bodhi leaf. "

IMPRESSIVE DETAILS

2010-04-19T09:29:00.000-07:00

The details in these latte art are impressive and outstanding from Flavours of Lakhoum.

Here is a review:
"Eclectic and endlessly captivating, this Moroccan-themed cafe offers a feast for the eyes in more ways than one, with jewel-bright brass lamps swinging from the ceiling and Moorish trinkets littering every surface. Fascinating as these aesthetic touches are, the real visual attraction is owner/barista Chris Phillip's coffee. Shunning simple leaf and heart shapes, Phillips carves intricate faces out of variations in the crema. Wielding the end of a spoon like a paintbrush, he creates transient artworks that are almost too engrossing to drink. Not merely known for their coffee however, Flavours of Lakhoum also offer a range of Middle Eastern-inspired salads, falafels and similar cafe fare."
