Additional notes
Ted Kirkpatrick takes a great interest in coffee, and after tons of feedback from fans he decided to start a Tourniquet coffee co. The biography for it can be viewed in the "Coffee" section of the Tourniquet store, and the coffee can also be purchased there, with a summary of each blend.
