weirdnessCan’t get through the day without a cup of coffee? Melville House, a Brooklyn-based indie publisher, and the Brooklyn Roasting Company have collaborated to create a special blend called The Weirdness.

This limited edition concoction is inspired by Jeremy Bushnell’s debut novel which shares the same title. One of the scenes in the book features the protagonist, a writer named Billy Ridgeway, making a deal with Lucifer over freshly brewed coffee.

Michael Pollack, the owner of the Brooklyn Roasting Company, gave this statement in the press release: “We are thrilled to collaborate with one of our friends and neighbors. The relationship of coffee and reading is one of our core ideals.” Will you be trying this?
