Here is what is actually happening. Overnight, your body dries out and your senses go into hyperdrive to compensate. Your taste receptors become absurdly sensitive to everything, which is why that first glass of water tastes like it was poured directly from a mountain spring blessed by a Swiss monk. It is not the water that changed. It is you. You are basically a walking sensory amplifier before your first cup, and coffee is the thing that brings you back down to normal human calibration.
Coffee does not dull your senses. It stabilizes them. It is less a morning ritual and more a recalibration of your entire operating system. Without it, you are just stumbling around tasting everything too hard and pretending water is exciting.
Water is not exciting. We both know this.
The beautiful irony is that coffee, the thing people call an addiction or a bad habit, is the very thing returning you to baseline. It is practically a health product. You are welcome for that justification.

65 years ago, Tea & Coffee Company first opened its doors under the name “The Java Shop” in the heart of downtown Edmonton. It didn’t take long for The Java Shop to be known throughout the city of Edmonton for having the freshest cup of premium coffee. Along with a great atmosphere and the finest product, we were also the proud owner of the first espresso machine in Canada. This, combined with roasting our own coffee and serving it fresh, our popularity was sure to grow.
Over the years, although faces have changed, techniques have been tweaked and the focus of the business has been shifted. We are proud to say that we still hold true to the company roots. We still import our coffees direct from the worlds finest coffee growing regions, we still roast our coffees daily to ensure that they are always fresh and of superior quality and we still have a strong passion for the pursuit of the perfect cup.
