The prayer on the reverse reads: Dear Lord, who art high in the Heavens, Giver of Love and Passion, And He who strings the heart's cords, Lead the Lovers this day, February ten plus four. The day during the month of two, When the date is the perfect number of God Creator two souls and two hearts. Some Loves are fleeting, But that which is built on you will never fail. So guide the Lovers to know what is to be. Your truths the Lovers' mouths should speak, For Your truth is that which is honest to the heart. Only this, then, should pass over the red lips of the Lovers. Your art, the Lovers simply a medium. It is only with the True Hearts that You can create a Masterpiece, So let the Lovers remember that their Soul's Desire is the one for which You light their Fire. And let it be You who creates the Art of the Lovers; the art of two into one. Amen.

Every Roast Has A Patron

Every blend we craft is inspired by a Catholic saint, chosen for their courage, virtue, or devotion. Just like the lives they lived, each roast has a bold, meaningful character all its own.

St. Valentine (c. 270) was an early Christian priest and martyr who remains famous as the patron saint of love, happy marriages, and soon-to-be married couples. Legend says that when a Roman emperor forbade his soldiers to marry—fearing that married soldiers would be unwilling to risk death and leave their wives widows—Valentine married couples in secret. His soft spot for lovers has never been forgotten.

St. Valentine of Rome was a priest who lived in Rome during the reign of Emperor Claudius II. Little is known of his life with certainty, except that he ministered to Christians who were persecuted and imprisoned for their faith, and died a martyr.

One account has it that the emperor banned all marriages and engagements in Rome, believing this was the reason Roman men were unwilling to serve in the army. Valentine defied this unjust decree and continued to perform marriages for lovers in secret.

He was arrested, and while in prison he restored sight to his jailer’s blind daughter, causing the jailer and his entire extended household, forty-six people in total, to immediately convert to Christianity. Upon hearing this, Claudius ordered Valentine’s execution.

St. Valentine left a farewell note for the jailer’s daughter, whom he had befriended, and signed it “From Your Valentine.” He was beheaded on February 14th and so the Church made the day of his entrance into heaven as a martyr the day we celebrate his life and legacy as the Feast of St. Valentine, or Valentine’s Day. His remains can still be found today, buried along the Via Flaminia in Rome.

St. Valentine is the patron of many causes including beekeepers, betrothed and engaged couples, lovers, love, happy marriages, and young people.
