Years ago, Zen monks practiced Kung Fu to clear their minds and condition their
bodies. Today's philosophers spend less time outdoors and more time in coffee
shops, but this is no reason to abandon the quest for perfection. We believe
that philosophical insight is as dependent today as it ever was on mastery of
the physical realm, and to do our part in advancing the knowledge of the world,
we strive for nothing short of perfection in the preparation of our coffee,
even if it is “hard work”.
