Dream On Joey Kramer: Aerosmith Drummer's Coffee Coming to Rocky Hill
Rockin' and Roastin' will be available at Connecticut's Big Y stores by September.
By September, a new coffee line by longtime Aerosmith drummer Joey Kramer will be out in stores throughout Connecticut, including Big Y in Rocky Hill.
Right now, the coffee — called Rockin' and Roastin' — is sold mostly online. But Kramer has signed a deal that will bring his coffee into all 30 Connecticut Big Y stores later this summer. His company will also sell the coffee in seven Geissler Supermarkets and Bozzuto's in Cheshire by September, the Hartford Courant reports.
Kramer started Rockin' and Roastin' in April of 2012, originally selling the product solely online. The organic coffee feature beans from Ethiopia, Guatemala and Sumatra, according to the company's website.
"I think [Rockin' and Roastin'] is very smooth, which is the way coffee should be," Kramer told The Courant. "We're bringing it for public consumption at a very reasonable price because I don't think people should be gouged for gourmet coffee."
