Dueling Rabbits has gone international.
A couple of months ago, journalist and documentary producer Vladimir Raevskiy and his crew were traveling across the United States filming a documentary exploring specialty coffee in America.
Somewhere along the way, they had heard about a little coffee roaster in Wilmington called Dueling Rabbits.
So they stopped in.
What was supposed to be a chance to try the coffee and have a conversation turned into an afternoon of tasting, talking about specialty coffee, roasting, sourcing, and what we're trying to build here at Dueling Rabbits, followed by an interview for the documentary.
And now, we're officially part of the finished film.
Seeing our tiny nine-seat cafe in Wilmington included alongside stops from across the United States is pretty surreal.
Vladimir is a London-based journalist, television presenter and documentary producer who has spent years telling stories about culture, history and the people behind them. For this project, he took that same approach to American specialty coffee, traveling the country, meeting the people behind the cafes and roasteries, and trying to understand what makes this side of coffee culture different.
The fact that they had heard of Dueling Rabbits, sought us out, tasted what we're doing, and decided our story belonged in the documentary is something we're incredibly proud of.
We're a very small shop with a pretty big obsession: finding remarkable coffees from around the world and giving people the chance to experience origins they may have never even known produced coffee.
Apparently that obsession travels farther than we thought.
The documentary is primarily in Russian, with an English-dubbed version available, and Dueling Rabbits makes an appearance along the journey.
