Infusion Coffee and Tea Crafters

Trying to get to an off-site coffee shop between business conference sessions is often like a leg of the Amazing Race. Half the time, the targeted cafe is just far enough away that you only have enough time to grab the coffee and get back before you are poignantly missed.

Having a good eye for design also helps (people do like books with nice covers).
