Curator’s note

Saadat and Janine Awan met at a show in Baltimore in early 2009, and the two coffee veterans, on little money and a lot of heart, opened Woodcat's doors to the neighbors on a Saturday. He is an architectural MEP engineer and a drummer, she an illustrator, and the name came back with them from a five-week road trip through eleven countries in Western Europe.

The Coffee

The Colombia Tolima comes from 379 smallholders of MULTICOOP in six varieties, Castillo to Tabi. The roaster works apart from the two cafes and ships web orders after the Tuesday roast.

The Vibe

Woodcat's front is a red awning lettered COFFEE BAR over the glass, with a painted roll-up shutter tucked beneath it and white beadboard above the windows. Inside, the lower wall is painted bright red under white plaster, with a live-edge wood ledge along it, a boxy white-painted stool with a dark top and a dark concrete floor.
