Arizona Coffee Podcast #2 with Martha Raymond of The Coffee Vein
September 2, 2006 Posted by Chris Tingom Filed under Interviews
Just about three weeks ago I had the great pleasure of meeting Martha Raymond and Mike Trevino from The Coffee Vein in Tucson. We recorded a podcast and here it is along with some photos I took during the trip. I will be doing a full write up shortly on The Coffee Vein, with more pictures.
The Coffee Vein is doing a great job serving coffee. They’re raising the bar very high and have a real passion for coffee quality. While we were there we asked Mike Trevino to prepare some macchiato’s for us. Hands down it was the best macchiato I have ever had. Look below for a photo.
Enjoy the show and stay tuned for more…

Larry says:
Nice interview!
Tucson is very fortunate to have them. They are a cafe that has it all! Excellent barista skills, super high quality beverages and products combined with great customer service, all served up with a true passion and care for what they do.
A shop that can go “toe to toe” with the best in the Northwest!
Charlie says:
This is my chance to pay tribute to one of Tucson’s Treasures. I’ve said it before, and I’m saying it now, “Coffee Vein’s Mike Trevino is one of a kind. He reads the machine, the coffee, the weather, and he makes all the right calls, Perfect espresso!”
I ‘ve also said, “Mike could turn water to wine, and wine to coffee,” and I’m sticking by that too! Congratulations to the coffee Vein!
