Blessed Grounds

Do you believe a coffee shop can have a soul? I do now. Blessed Grounds in Tucson is a true gem for anyone who believes coffee can be both an art and a force for good. This is a place with a clear purpose. They are a veteran owned coffee roaster that is deeply passionate about its mission. They source their beans through direct trade to support farming communities and roast everything in-house on a beautiful Ozturkbay roaster. You can absolutely taste the care and quality in every single cup. I ordered their Ethiopia pour-over and it was incredible. The tasting notes of bright blueberry and creamy coconut came screaming out of the cup with every sip. It was one of those coffee moments you remember. My wife got their famous Chai Latte and I have to admit I stole more than a few sips when she wasn't looking. It was awesome. Perfectly spiced and not too sweet with amazing warm kick of cinnamon and cardamom. Forget those sugary syrup bombs this was the real deal.
The staff is just as impressive as the coffee. They are excited to share their story and pull amazing shots on their high end Sanremo espresso machine. The atmosphere is cozy and welcoming and peaceful. This is more than just a coffee shop it is an experience.
