“Sprudge” is a made-up word for the coffee crumbs, blotches, and splats present on a barista’s clothing and shoes. Sprudge was created in 2009 by Zachary Carisen and Jordan Michelman base in Portland, Oregon. On Sprudge you can find highlights of global coffee culture and original journalism. Not only does Sprudge publish original coffee culture highlights but also news, events, wine, trending tech and design. Sprudge has over seventy writers all around the world to cover new cafes opening in cities worldwide. Sprudge has been featured in The New York Times, Gawker, Wired, Buzzfeed, The New Yorker, NY magazines and much more.
Sprudge is a blog I aspire to become. I would love to travel the world and review local native cafes. Hopefully I can grow from reviewing local cafes in San Marcos to reviewing cafes in Austin and San Antonio to other states in the U.S. Their website is very organized and easy to use. Their blog post are really easy to read. They also include a lot of pictures so it’s not boring to read.
Hopefully the more I blog the better I get and I can make my website look better. Add more tabs and expand my blog beyond coffee. Maybe, later on, I might even be making merch for my beloved fans too! For now, I’m going to enjoy exploring the beautiful city of San Marcos and get to know the community a little better before I graduate.
