I always say;
If something's worth doing,
it's worth overdoing !

And in that same spirit, the house blend was concieved.
It's a fine fresh roasted fair trade coffee, called linuxcaffe,
naturally. Is it open source ? Why yes ! On the label we give exact
geographic location (as accurate as possible) along with the growers
contact information, so you can email them (or, more likely, send a
letter)  Exact roasting times and dates and temperatures are also
printed. The logo is Tux doing his best Juan Valdez, and we will sell it
at the caffe, and on the web.

So there ya go ! Such a fine line between stupid and clever, that it's
often worth entertaining silliness !

Let the Colombian vs. Kenyan flamewars begin ! 
Promote your favorite coffee producing community !
Tell them how much you enjoyed your steaming cup !
  and send them free software .. yeah ! THATs the ticket !
