Meet Alan Patterson - our newest addition to the VCC family

We'd like to welcome our newest staff member to the VCC family. 

Fredrick Alan Patterson (Alan) comes to Vienna as our new Territory Sales Manager, with lots of sales experience and an enthusiasm that is infectious.  Please welcome Alan to VCC as he makes the rounds over the next few weeks to meet our existing friends and customers.  He’ll be learning all about our particular brand of specialty coffee as well as the suite of other strong brands the Vienna Coffee distributes to our customers like Ghirardelli Chocolate sauces, Monin and Torani syrups and sauces, Xtreme Freeze real fruit smoothie bases and of course Harney and Son’s Fine Teas.  Ask him what’s new.  You can reach Alan at alanp@viennacoffeecompany.com or call him at 865 809 5849.

Alan lives in South Knoxville with his wife of 13 years, Terry.  A Navy veteran, Alan has been stationed at the Great Lakes Naval Training Center in Chicago, Camp Lejeune, NC and the SEAL Team HQ in Little Creek, VA.  He grew up in and around the food sales business and has sold a range of products from insurance to Caterpillar parts to the wares of over 30 different food product manufacturers.  We look forward to his help taking Vienna Coffee to the next level of excellence in sales and customer service.

Another use for a Pour Over

If you are looking for another way to use your Hario V60 (which we sell at VCH) or pour over cone, think about using it as a french fry holder.

Try making truffle oil Belizean Bologo fries...

When I lived in Belize that is what they called these bananas, but I think in other places they call them Burro bananas. You fry them up when they are still green and unripe. We didn't have them with truffle oil in Belize, but thought that would be a good addition.

Just make sure to clean out your Hario V60 really well before using it for coffee again!

Opening Vienna Coffee on the Run at Pellissippi State Community College

We are happy to announce that we just opened a new kiosk in the lobby of the Blount County branch of Pellissippi State Community College.

We will be open from 8am - 2pm each day to help the students get that extra kick in the morning to help them through their next class.

We hope that if you attend Pellissippi State you'll come and say hi and grab a good ole cup of hot joe.

Coffee as Wedding Favors

Guess who just got married and had delicious Vienna Coffee Company coffee as give-a-ways for their guests? I did! Jamie Clark now Jamie Stoneham.

On September 17th, I got married to Les Stoneham at Gorman Heritage Farm complete with a full service espresso bar, home-brewed beer, and most of the food from the farm (where I work full time). It was such a beautiful day, and it was so great seeing all my friends and family gather around us and share with us this special day.

My mom, Sue Clark, made these great table runners out of the burlap sacs from Vienna Coffee Company. They were such a great touch especially since coffee is so important to both my family and Les. So many people helped out with making the wedding just so special!!

Did you know that Vienna Coffee Company does wedding favors? Well they do and it was a huge success!  Call the roastery if you are interested. 513.560.3986
