Coffee
96 Royal pours espresso drinks, cold brew, matcha, and Ugandan drip coffee in downtown Hagerstown, MD. Doors open at 7 AM, Monday to Saturday. Our drip coffee is Ugandan. Our espresso bar uses Ugandan beans among other origins.
Where the beans come from
The Ugandan Drip is $3.49, brewed from Ugandan beans. It is the cup we would hand you first. The espresso bar pulls a blend that uses Ugandan beans among other origins. So a latte here tastes a little different from the drip.
Uganda matters to us. Cedric founded Roots Africa, a nonprofit that trains young changemakers to work with farming families there. He volunteers his time to it. The story is here.
We are working toward buying coffee directly from the farming communities Roots Africa works with. That coffee is not in the cup yet. When it arrives, the grower's name goes on the board and the news goes to our email list first.
Doors open, six days a week. Saturday too.
