Carabello Coffee: Coffee and Compassion in Tandem
My friends introduced me to this gem because their friends run the business. Carabello Coffee is a philanthropic coffee shop which was founded by Justin and Emily Carabello. On a plane ride, Justin got a vision of roasting coffee and putting the money back into the communities where the coffee was grown. They eventually opened a shop in Newport Kentucky (a hop and a skip from Cincinnati.) The shop is now being expanded into two different sections: Pourover and Espresso will eventually be seperate. They also sell specialty ice pops (which they make), various baked goods, apparel and merch. There is little wasted space in this shop which I love love love. It was one of those shops that you walk into and it feels like your being welcomed into someones home. The staff all felt like family. They even go on trips to Nicaragua to visit the orphanage they support and the coffee farms they buy their coffee from. They have a wonderful vision and they have beautiful coffee's that are served all over the city.
My experience was really good. Friendly staff and my service was great. My espresso and cortado were both brought to me by the Barista and they were served with a delicious caramel on the side. My Cortado was a bit more foam than I prefer but other than that it was delightful.

Shoutout to @strawberrymalc for my amazing drinks and service!
So if you are ever in Cinci go and do the coffee world a favor and visit this lovely shop over the river in Newport.
You can find Carabello on the Facebook, twitter, Instagram and their website. I am posting an image that links to a video below of how they got started! It's not very long and it gives you a sense of all the wonderful things they are doing and just who they are as a couple.
Cheers!
