Jittery Joe’s was recently hailed as one of the “best places for sipping” in Athens by Taste of the South Magazine. Joe’s was featured alongside the likes of country-chic eatery White Tiger Gourmet, classic southern kitchen Peaches Fine Foods and, of course, Hendershot’s Coffee Bar, started by the very man behind the Jittery Joe’s tasting room, Seth Hendershot.

We are proud to be a part of such an eclectic and amazing group of local flavor in one of the coolest cities in the nation. A big thanks to our patrons for their continued support. We’ll keep the coffee comin!

Jittery Joe’s is proud to take part in and help kick off an event that celebrates the taste buds! Because to us, what’s better than savoring rich, delicious flavors? Nothing, guys. The answer is nothing.

We’re also big energy enthusiasts. We dig the active lifestyle and the adventurers who pursue it. That’s why we’ve decided to take part in sponsoring the Tri-Miami Sprint and Olympic Triathlon. It’s a great way to show our support for the athletes looking to go big.

The Tri-Miami will be held May 15th in Crandon Park in breathtaking Key Biscayne, Florida. Participants will take part in one of the most beautiful races, moving through lush tropical landscapes and past incredible ocean views.

And what will they receive in their goodie bag and on race day? A big energetic “You can do it!” in the form of Jittery Joe’s unique, robust Morning Ride blend. It’s 100% USDA organic and 100% delicious. It’s our little way of racing along with them.

We’re excited to make it out to Florida. We’re sure to give the sunshine state a real taste of our mighty beans, the everyday fuel for adventurers and coffee devotees alike!
