Our friends over at Atomic Coffee Roasters are debuting their new seasonal artwork by "Georgia Made This" for their ICONIC Witch City coffee blend! 👻 The artwork on this year's bags feature the Salem Witch House, one of the most popular destinations in Salem, and one of the few structures directly tied to the Salem witch trials of 1692! Witch City is an ode to Atomic's Salem roots, and could be your perfect fall cup of coffee! ☕️ Click the Link to grab a bag!: https://lnkd.in/eiBRpCTR
