Go Get Em Tiger

Los Angeles County, CA

—

Go Get Em Tiger is a Los Angeles staple. Started in 2012 by Kyle Glanville & Charles Babinski, GGET has become defined by the way coffee, food and community intersect fluidly.

Recently, the news broke that Go Get ‘Em Tiger had started roasting their own coffee—and secretly serving it in their cafes. This is incredibly exciting news for coffee lovers everywhere, and we’re thrilled to share these coffees with you. As a La Marzocco Home Home Espresso Subscription member, you are among the first in the world outside of Los Angeles to get to try this espresso. It’s truly been the talk of our offices the last few weeks. Enjoy!

Rather than be defined by specific coffees, Minor Monuments describes a flavor and roast profile best expressed in a milk beverage.  This means less of an emphasis on origin flavor, and a heavier stress on sweetness derived from caramelization and dense chocolate flavors. Minor Monuments should be rich, syrupy, and sweet with a fair amount of overt roast flavor.  Though this is our go-to milk espresso, it’s also sweet espresso with complimentary acidity that can be enjoyed on its own.
