A man and his coffee: Burlington family business born from love
Jim Young fell in love with coffee when he was 18 in Germany. After joining the military in 1983, he shipped out to Germany during the Cold War. Before leaving, Young only thought about coffee when he made it every morning for his first sergeant in infantry school. After serving in the army, Young ran an electronics store selling home theater setups and stereo systems. Young stuck with this job for 28 years doing the same thing over and over. Until one day he stopped loving it. So, Young returned to his first love, coffee.
