ORGANIC COFFEES AND TEAS
Our private-label organic coffees are freshly roasted, then properly packaged and shipped to preserve their rich, delicious quality and taste. We brew our own coffee beans in house, so you can taste their quality before you buy. Customers tell us that Pang’s private lable freshly roasted coffee is among the best they’ve tasted anywhere. Have you tried a cup yet? Here are descriptions of some of our most popular roasts and blends:
—Pang’s Organic Sumatra Mandehling—exotically pleasurable, oily dark-roasted beans that deliver a bold, richly satisfying cup of Joe—no kidding around with this one!
—Pang’s Organic New York, New York, a medium-dark roasted blend that’ll make you want to croon like Frank Sinatra, strong and smooth!
—Pang’s Panama Morning—new this season, enjoy its dark, rich, crisp and heavenly aroma—you’ll want it again and again!
—Pang’s Organic Decadent Decaf—ever try to find first-quality, whole-bean organic, Swiss water method decaffeinnated coffee? We’ve got this covered!
—and Pang’s Cinnamon Hazelnut—aromatic, smooth, rich, and never too heavily flavored—it’s just right, even if you don’t usually like flavored coffees!
Our fine organic teas are similarly unmatched in the region. We carry Rishi Teas exclusively—black, green, herbal, and white blends from around the world—all hand picked, fair trade/direct from farmer and organically grown. In addition, you’ll find Rishi Iced Tea blends (both with and without caffein), and Organic Masala Chai Tea concentrate.
GOURMET CHEESES 
We can order fine, hand-made cheeses imported from around the globe just for you. Made according to centuries-old recipes, these cheese deliver exceptional flavor, texture, and aromas for connoisseurs and novices alike. Discover the difference and treat yourself and your guests next time you entertain.
Because these are hand-made cheeses, availability is seasonal. Recent examples our customers have enjoyed include: Coulummiers (a mild Brie-like round), Geit-in-Stad (a young goat cheese), award-winning Grasslands Blue, ever-popular Hudson Valley Camembert, artisanal Manchego and Parmigiano Reggiano (need I say more?),
buttery-good Pont l’Eveque, Pang’s favorite—Roomano, and a rich, slightly pungent Tomme de Savoie. Let us know your favorites and we’ll do our best to order cheeses in time for your next big party or special meal.
RESPONSIBLE PACKAGING
We use only environmentally friendly biodegradable packaging at the Village Food Emporium. Pang, our resident dragon, genuinely dislikes plastic and styrofoam cups, cutlery, and containers that too frequently litter our beautiful land- and water-scapes!
FRESH BREADS AND BAKED GOODS
We bake our breads first thing each morning, along with muffins and cookies. But if you need someone to prepare a a really special dessert, like a beautiful cheese cake, we can do that, too. In fact, we love to bake for special occasions, whether you need breads, pies, rolls, cookies, cakes, or delicious scones. But please call ahead (at least two days) to place those special orders. You’ll be glad you did!
