A setback in our ONGOING TKC BOYCOTT . . . Kansas City coffee is taking it's game to the university level . . .

KU coffee shops rebranding to Kansas City’s Roasterie

Deets:

"KU is rebranding its various coffee shops and stations to highlight their affiliation with the Roasterie. The Kansas City, Mo., based coffee company that air-roasts its own beans features a vintage propeller plane in its logo.

"KU has partnered with the Roasterie and served its coffee for years, said Nona Golledge, director of KU Dining Services. The rebranding effort will make that recognizable, and hopefully appeal to people who care about supporting local companies."

While getting students hooked on a specific type of caffeine is a smart move . . . We can only suggest taking the Westside blighting airplane to the KU campus and see if it flies there . . . Moreover, this is yet another reason to visit Starbucks or hopefully some stranger's house for a better bit of morning java.
