Some fantastic stuff. A bag of roasted beans from the factory is something people usually have to shell crush and sugar to make it palatable. These were so good I was usually popping them straight and sometimes not even shelling them. The bitterness and lightness of the bean is amazing.

The Merida store is beautiful, housed within a 1903 townhouse. The location has an onsite residency, spa, and cafe, in addition to the perfumery shop!

I left with my perfume, a couple of marmalades, and a pink peppercorn honey! The service is wonderful - friendly, patient (I tried just about every perfume from that line), and helpful!

Before my massage I was treated with a set of cucumber, cream cheese, rose, & lemongrass tea sandwiches as well as tea which was included in my massage. The masseuse was excellent. Great memorable experience. The young lady at front desk from Los Angeles was super friendly and welcoming.
