Earlier today we sent out an email to owner Aaron Blanco and published it here on Sprudge.com. A few moments ago, Aaron Blanco responded on The Brown Coffee Company’s official website:

We at the Brown Coffee Company would like to issue a formal apology for a hurtful Twitter post that was put out on our company’s Twitter profile. We want to say for the record that everyone in this small family company is deeply regretful of all the offense we have caused everyone in this situation. We are truly sorry to have offended all the people we have offended. That kind of awful bigotry, hatred and slander has never been and will never be something we believe in and/or post and we are sorry to anyone who has seen this.

That Twitter post was contrary to everything we have strived to be as a company: one that enjoys life and enjoys people, regardless of personal beliefs. Those in the community who know us personally know that we are not hateful, spiteful, bigoted, intolerant people.

Thank you very much for giving us the opportunity to tell our side of the story. We humbly stand before anyone reading this and ask for your forgiveness for all the terrible things this stupid Twitter post has become and for all the offense it has caused to good people.

Thanks, Aaron.
