Wake Up Down South
The warm, rich aroma of the highest quality coffee served in an elegant, Southern courtyard garden is the original essence captured by Southernness’ "Mornin' Y'all."
Going back to Captain John Smith’s arrival in Jamestown, Virginia in 1607, it was Southerners who introduced coffee to the Americas. While Starbucks, the Seattle coffee marketer, is a new fangled thing, the first coffee shop in the U.S. was established far back in the 1680s in Maryland.
Coffee has been part of Southern hospitality for four centuries. Along with the delightful scent and warm feelings, coffee down South has long been accompanied by the distinctively Southern greeting of "Mornin' Y'all." With such sentiment, Southernness invites you to light a "Mornin' Y'all" candle, pour a rich cup of your favorite coffee, and enjoy Mornin' Y'all Coffee Cookies made from our favorite recipe.
