Mobile Coffee — CJ-3B Beans in London

• CATEGORIES: Features • TAGS: This site contains affiliate links for which I may be compensated.

Carlos Torres opened a mobile coffee stand in London using a CJ-3B that he rebuilt into a mobile coffee stand like those he’d seen in his native Colombia. He also offers tailor-made “Colombian Experience” packages where he’ll provide the mobile coffee jeep plus salsa dancers, live music, and more. If you are in London, make sure to hunt down his jeep and get a proper cup of Colombian coffee! You can learn more at these links:

  1. At the CJ-3B Page: http://cj3b.info/World/ColombiaPortland.html

This August of 1957 Coffee and ‘Jeep’ Vehicles brochure was one I didn’t know existed until it appeared on eBay two weeks ago. That CJ-2A dump jeep is pretty interesting.

The next three pages foldout into a single page. But, I’ve separated them for easier reading:

Don Cafe’s 3B in New York City

• CATEGORIES: Features • TAGS: This site contains affiliate links for which I may be compensated.

Heading to New York City? Well make sure to stop at the southwestern corner of Central Park and visit Don Cafe’s espresso jeep. This is exactly what I asked (ordered?) Tommy and Holly Lansidel, my niece and nephew, who recently visited New York City and took these photos.

Fabio Antonio Arbelaez, one of the people behind Don Cafe and its coffee products, is from Colombia. His great grandfather was the first Arriero (horseman) to cross Andes Mountains. He made the journey with his 60 mules. When he was on the top of the Andes he was amazed by the beautiful green of the valley of Quindio (It looks just like Kona Hawaii). He decided to settle there. He established 22 coffee, Cocoa, sugar cane, plantain and yuca Farms of which Fabio’s family still owns eleven. It has been a family business for over 150 years.

For now, you can find Don Cafe’s jeep at the location below. However, don’t be surprised to see more jeeps serving coffee in New York City and other American cities. You can also keep track of the company on Facebook: https://www.facebook.com/DonCafeProducts/
